Louisa Jacobson’s career and achievements
Jacobson, like her mother, graduated from Yale’s School of Drama. She began her career in theater before moving on to screen roles. Since 2022, she has played Marian Brook, a socially conscious socialite, in The Gilded Age. Her performance, along with her co-stars, earned her a Screen Actors Guild Award nomination for their ensemble work on the show.
In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, Jacobson discussed the upcoming third season of The Gilded Age. She hinted at more drama, saying she believes season 3 will simply be a continuation of the same delicious drama. But perhaps with a bit more power and edge. That’s what she hopes, and she’s encouraged the show’s creator, Julian Fellowes, to keep notes.
