Patti LuPone Fast Facts:
Named for great-great-aunt and opera soprano Adelina Patti.
Made stage debut tap dancing at the age of four and later performed with her teenage twin brothers as The LuPone Trio.
Breakout role was her Tony Award-winning performance of Eva Peron in Andrew Lloyd Webber's smash hit
Evita
in 1979.
Became the first American actress to win an Olivier Award (she received it for creating the role of Fantine in the Royal Shakespeare Company production of
Les Miserables
).
Met husband Matthew while working on the TV movie

in 1986 and married him on the stage of the Vivian Beaumont Theater at Lincoln Center two years later.
Originated the role of Norma Desmond in the London production of Lloyd Webber's musical
Sunset Boulevard

Stopped the show and broke character near the end of her Tony Award-winning run in
Gypsy
to chastise an audience member who was taking photographs during the performance.
