Isabella Rossellini
Although her father was director Roberto Rossellini and her mother was actress Ingrid Bergman, Isabella Rossellini had little desire to work in the film industry when she arrived in New York City at 19 years old. She was sure that fashion was her calling—and by her late 20s, a few years after studying costume design at Manhattan’s Finch College, she was appearing as a model in magazines such as Vogue and Interview. Not long after, Rossellini decided to join the family business: she was cast in her first American film in the early 1980s, before starring in David Lynch’s haunting 1986 thriller, "Blue Velvet." Over the last few decades, Rossellini has only further demonstrated the breadth of her talent, working as a producer and director while still modeling and acting, most recently in the papal drama "Conclave," in which she co-stars alongside Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, and John Lithgow. On this week’s episode of "Table for Two," the actress joins host Bruce Bozzi to discuss her relationship to her parents’ work, how her style has changed with age, and why she went back to school in her mid-50s.
