Early life

Gershon went to Collier Street Elementary School and Woodland Hills Academy (formerly Parkman Junior High).[6] She attended Beverly Hills High School and started acting at the age of 14. After graduating from high school in 1980, she moved to Boston to attend Emerson College. She transferred to New York University and graduated with a BFA in drama and psychology/philosophy in 1983.[7]
She has said she always wanted to be an actress, but her career began in music and dance.[6]

Gershon attended the Circle in the Square Professional Theater School in New York, working first with David Mamet and later with Harold Guskin and Sandra Seacat, whom she has described in interviews as "a huge influence."[8][9] Her first professional acting was in stage productions of Camille and The Substance of Fire.

She has appeared on Broadway three times: as Sally Bowles in the revival of Cabaret; in the revival of the sex farce Boeing-Boeing; and as Rosie Alvarez in the 2010 revival of Bye Bye Birdie at the Roundabout Theatre Company.[11]
Film
Her break came with a bit part in Pretty in Pink (1986), which led to more substantial roles in Sweet Revenge with Nancy Allen, Cocktail with Tom Cruise and Elisabeth Shue, and John Sayles' urban drama City of Hope (1991). Also in 1991, she appeared in the action film Out for Justice opposite Steven Seagal, where she played Patti Madano, sister of the film's villain, Richie Madano (William Forsythe).

You should really do all of the research and read all of the articles before believing that. It's really important to make up your own mind and not go by what the masses claim. I've done extensive research and I can say with very clear conscience that I'm so happy to be working with him. This man is not a sexual predator."[31] Gershon also called working on the film "a dream come true".[32] Gershon will also star in With/In an anthology film set during the COVID-19 pandemic directing from a screenplay she wrote.[33]
