Ryder's many accolades include a Golden Globe Award, as well as nominations for two Academy Awards, a BAFTA, and a Grammy.
Following her film debut in Lucas (1986), Ryder rose to prominence when she played the supporting part of Lydia Deetz in Beetlejuice (1988). Major parts in Heathers (1989), Edward Scissorhands, Mermaids (both 1990), and Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992) came next. She earned two consecutive Oscar nominations—Best Supporting Actress and Best Actress—for her portrayals of May Welland in The Age of Innocence (1993) and Jo March in Little Women (1994), respectively. Her subsequent work included starring roles in Reality Bites (1994), How to Make an American Quilt (1995), The Crucible (1996), Alien Resurrection (1997), Celebrity (1998), Girl, Interrupted (1999), Autumn in New York (2000), and Mr. Deeds (2002).
Ryder took a break from acting in the early 2000s,[3] later returning with smaller appearances in films such as A Scanner Darkly (2006), Star Trek (2009), Black Swan (2010), and The Dilemma (2011). For her portrayal of Lois Wilson in the Hallmark television film When Love Is Not Enough (2010), she was nominated for the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Miniseries or Television Movie.
