Geny Cassady's daughter Madison was born last November with a congenital heart defect and needed surgery at five days old. While she was hospitalized, nurses encouraged Cassady to pump and store breast milk for her daughter's recovery.

Later, in the 1980s, they joined the Solidarity movement that would...
...that confidence that enables her to be both the thoroughbred who works like a dray and the Oscar perennial who shows off her breasts. It's the same instinct that told her what to do when Titanic became a global cultural obsession, transforming her from the daughter of actors making her way up the film food chain to an international symbol of young, reckless, undying love. She fled. She made a string of the least commercially appealing films imaginable, featuring wayward mothers, weird cults, memory loss and the Marquis de Sade. In fact, the 13 films she has appeared...
