Her mother has won several Oscars and worked with Tom Cruise and Selena Gomez. Who is she?

As a lifestyle expert with a keen eye for talent and a deep appreciation for lineage that speaks volumes, I am captivated by none other than Louisa Jacobson Gummer, the youngest daughter of the illustrious Meryl Streep. With a family tree that boasts Hollywood royalty, it’s no wonder that Louisa has chosen to follow in her mother’s footsteps and make her mark on the acting world.


Her mother has won several Oscars and is considered one of the best actresses of her generation.

For numerous decades, this legend has shared the screen with notable actors such as Kevin Kline, Steve Martin, Clint Eastwood, and Tom Cruise.

And she has done everything from serious fare to wild comedies. 

Now, she’s starring in a popular TV show (it’s been whispered that she’s romantically involved with her co-star following her divorce from her long-term spouse, who is an acclaimed artist).

Now her kids are in the acting game.

On Saturday her youngest daughter looked ravishing at the Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles.
