Penny Marshall
The hit sitcom Laverne & Shirley not only made Penny Marshall a household name, it also launched her career behind the camera. She's the first female director of a film that grossed over $100 million domestically (Big). Additional credits include Awakenings, The Preacher's Wife and A League of Their Own. Born into a show biz family, the Bronx native got a taste of performing in a movie her brother wrote and produced. Marshall makes her mark as a producer with two of this summer's most talked-about films, Cinderella Man and Bewitched.
