In the 1984 The Burning Bed, she earned an Emmy nomination (her first of three) as a real-life battered woman who sets the rack of her shame on fire, with her abusive husband in it. She took a similar part - another woman who exacts vengeance from the man who raped her - in William Mastrosimone's off-Broadway play and then 1986 movie Extremities.
