Meryl Streep and husband Don Gummer's beautiful love story

She famously gave him a shoutout while winning an Oscar

Unlike her A-list contemporaries who often marry (and then divorce) other Hollywood industry vets, Meryl Streep is different. The 69-year-old three-time Oscar winner (she's earned 21 nominations) married the love of her life, sculptor Don Gummer, 72, over 40 years ago. And ever since, he's appeared with her at countless public-facing events, always letting the "Kramer vs. Kramer," "The Iron Lady" and "The Devil Wears Prada" star steal the spotlight. Streep바카라 게임 웹사이트s most notable shoutout to her husband came during her 2012 Academy Awards speech (she won bestaActress for "Julie & Julia"), in which she started her monologue by mentioning Gummer. "First, I'm going to thank Don because when you thank your husband at the end of the speech they play him out with the music and I want him to know that everything I value most in our lives, you've given me," Streep said. The pair first met when 29-year-old Streep mourned her then-boyfriend and "Deer Hunter" co-star John Cazale, who died of lung cancer in 1978. Shortly after his death, according to her biography, "Her Again: Becoming Meryl Streep" by Michael Schulman (an excerpt of which was published in People), Streep was kicked out of their shared apartment. And Streep바카라 게임 웹사이트s brother Harry arrived with his friend Don in tow. Around six months later, Streep and Gummer were married in the garden of her parents바카라 게임 웹사이트 home in September 1978.Gummer was born on Dec. 12, 1946, in Louisville, Kentucky. He and Streep both attended Yale University, where Gummer earned a BFA and MFA, and she earned an MFA in 1975. Previously, Gummer attended the School of the Museum of Fine Arts. In 1973, the same year he graduated, Gummer debuted his first solo exhibition at 112 Greene Street in New York City.According to ArtDaily, Gummer바카라 게임 웹사이트s early work concentrated on table top and wall-mounted sculptures with his interest later shifting to large, free-standing works in the mid-'80s. And according to his bio, since his debut, he바카라 게임 웹사이트s done 22 solo shows across the country as well as well as 12 group shows. Gummer has earned several prestigious awards and has been featured in dozens of public collections and public commissions.Together, the couple have welcomed four children 바카라 게임 웹사이트 Henry Wolfe, 39, Mamie, 35, Grace, 33, and Louisa, 27 바카라 게임 웹사이트 all of whom have followed in mom and dad's creative footsteps. Henry is a musician while Mamie and Grace are actresses and Louisa is a model. And if you're wondering whether Gummer is supportive of Streep's megawatt career, the answer is yes. He was at Streep's side at many of her most celebrated events, including at the 51st Academy Awards in 1979; at the premiere of "Kramer vs. Kramer" that same year; at the 55th Academy Awards in 1983; at the 61st Academy Awards in 1989; at "The Bridges of Madison County" premiere in 1995; at "The Hours" premiere in 2002; at the 79th Academy Awards in 2007; at the "Mamma Mia!" premiere in 2008; and at the 90th Academy Awards in 2018.Despite keeping a low profile within both the media and art world, Gummer has managed to forge a successful career in his field without using his wife바카라 게임 웹사이트s A+ reputation to help bolster his own.
