DLG261 Actress Marielina Langsdon has an unusually complex relationship with her mother.

Marielina is a New York native, LaGuardia School graduate and accomplished actress. Likely you've seen her on TV. Marilena is the only child of a doctor (dad) and a trained nurse (mom) whose high level job involved running a hospital. The emotional machinations that Maralina has gone through with her parents, her mom in particular, (her dad died when she was 9) has likely contributed to her skills and success as an actress. The circumstances around her mom are emotionally confusing—I don't want to say more here as it would be out of context, but it is uplifting to hear how Marilena has negotiated her life to have a successful career and marriage.
