Anne Dudek co-stars opposite Tobias Menzies in Apple TV+’s limited series MANHUNT, based on James Swanson’s bestselling book. The series centers on the aftermath of America’s first presidential assassination and the fight to preserve and protect the ideals that were the foundation of Lincoln’s Reconstruction plans.
Dudek recently recurred opposite Sean Penn and Julia Roberts in Starz’s Watergate drama series GASLIT, based on Slate’s Slow Burn podcast. Prior to that, she starred for three seasons in Comedy Central’s dark comedy CORPORATE, created by co-stars Jake Wiseman & Matt Ingebretson. The show is an uncomfortably hilarious look at your average soulless multi-national corporation. Dudek plays the company’s top sycophant, and shines in her role.
Other projects include recurring roles in Amazon’s hit detective thriller BOSCH, FX comedy YOU’RE THE WORST, NBC’s drama THE INBETWEEN, The CW’s THE FLASH as well as Syfy’s THE MAGICIANS.
While hilarious in CORPORATE, Anne is best known for her dramatic work. She played Hugh Laurie’s rival and Robert Sean Leonard’s love interest on hit FOX drama HOUSE. She had a pivotal arc on AMC’s MAD MEN as Francine Hanson, Betty Draper’s next-door neighbor (opposite Jon Hamm and January Jones); as well as a recurring role on HBO’s BIG LOVE as Laura Grant, the devious wife of Alby (Matt Ross).
Anne was a Series Regular on COVERT AFFAIRS (USA). She has recurred on THOSE WHO KILL (A&E), and appeared on a number of other hit shows including MASTERS OF SEX, GREY’S ANATOMY, PRIVATE PRACTICE, LONGMIRE, LAW AND ORDER and Gus Van Sant’s THE DEVIL YOU KNOW for HBO.
In film, Anne played Anthony Hopkins’ daughter in THE HUMAN STAIN with Nicole Kidman and Ed Harris, directed by Robert Benton. More recently she has appeared in indie features PARK, WRISTCUTTERS, and HOUSE BY THE LAKE.
In addition to her work on screen, Anne is an accomplished theatre actress with a long list of credits in NY (Broadway & off Broadway), LA and regionally. She won accolades for her performances in both THE GLASS MENAGERIE on The Hartford Stage and in MIRROR OF THE INVISIBLE WORLD at The Goodman Theatre.
