Actress Patricia Clarkson's mother is a NOLA city councilwoman

Patricia Clarkson said her mother, New Orleans councilwoman Jackie Clarkson, had stayed at the side of Mayor Ray Nagin while Katrina ravaged the city.

"She's all right, otherwise I wouldn't be here," Clarkson said at the Venice Film Festival in Italy, where she was promoting her new movie.

If you don't know who she is - she's a talented actress who does more independant style movies (got an Oscar nomination for 'Pieces of APril') but most of you probably know her Ruth Fisher's sister Sarah in "Six Feet Under"

2. I loved her in High Art

Playing Ally Sheedy's scorned lover. After seeing that movie I just assumed that Patricia was a German actress because she played it so convincingly in High ARt
