In her memoir, ''Sunshine Girl'', Margulies wrote that her parents both adhered to the teachings of [[anthroposophy]].<ref>{{Cite book|last=Julianna|first=Margulies|title=Sunshine Girl}}</ref> Margulies, herself, has said that she does not hold religious beliefs, although she is ethnically Jewish and teaches the traditions to her son.<ref name="Keeps">{{Cite web|last=Keeps|first=David A.|date=April 9, 2013|title=Julianna Margulies Talks Marriage and Family Life|url=https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/family/celebrity-interviews/julianna-margulies-interview|access-date=November 25, 2021|website=[[Good Housekeeping]]|language=en-US}}</ref> In a 2013 interview, she said, "I would say if I had a religion, it would be gratitude…I love the tradition of Judaism that on Friday nights, [[Shabbat]] means 'Goodbye to the workweek; hello to family and the weekend.'"<ref name="Keeps"/>

In her memoir, Margulies also wrote about her difficult, nomadic childhood. She is from [[New York City]], but she moved with her mother to different countries and states throughout her youth, including [[Sussex|Sussex, England]], and [[Paris|Paris, France]]. As a result, French was Margulies' first language. She has since lost the ability to speak it fluently.<ref name="Margulies">{{Cite book|last=Margulies|first=Julianna|title=Sunshine Girl}}</ref>

In the book, Margulies described her childhood as ultimately loving, but unpredictable and unstable.<ref name="Margulies" /> She detailed many emotionally traumatic experiences.<ref name="Margulies" />

Margulies attended many different schools as a child, including [[Green Meadow Waldorf School]] and [[High Mowing School]].<ref name=yahoo>{{cite web| url= https://movies.yahoo.com/movie/contributor/1800229188/bio|title=Julianna Margulies profile at|website= movies.yahoo.com|access-date=February 19, 2011}}</ref> She graduated with a degree in art history and English from [[Sarah Lawrence College]], where she appeared in several campus plays.

==Career==
===1994–2000: ''ER''===
Margulies made her feature film debut in [[Steven Seagal]]'s action film ''[[Out for Justice]]'' (1991), playing a prostitute. In 1994, Margulies was cast in the pilot episode of the [[NBC]] medical drama ''[[ER (TV series)|ER]]'' as [[Carol Hathaway]], an emergency care nurse who attempts suicide. Her character was originally intended to die; however, test audiences overwhelmingly wanted her to survive, so the producers changed the plot.<ref>{{Cite web |first=N.F |last=Mendoza |date=November 27, 1994 |title=With an Eye on...: Julianna Margulies, head nurse on 'ER,' enjoys the treatment she's getting |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1994-11-27-tv-1849-story.html |access-date=March 4, 2022 |website=[[Los Angeles Times]]}}</ref>

At the time she was offered ''ER'', Margulies had also been offered an extended role on NBC's ''[[Homicide: Life on the Street]]'', after a two-episode appearance earlier in the year.<ref>{{cite video| url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSmjZJKrgNk| archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211030/HSmjZJKrgNk| archive-date=October 30, 2021| title=The Story Behind 'ER'| publisher=Pop network| via= YouTube| date=November 13, 2013| access-date=January 21, 2018}}{{cbignore}}</ref> Then-unknown actor [[George Clooney]], who had filmed the pilot episode with Margulies, called her to let her know that he had overheard producers saying that her character might become a series regular. He encouraged her to consider waiting for ''ER'' producers to call her and not take another job. Clooney was right, and Margulies accepted the role on ''ER'' in 1994.<ref>{{Citation|title=Just Getting Started with Rich Eisen – Julianna Margulies: What Else Could I Have Done? {{!}} Episode 15| date=June 26, 2021 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7lj_IiVMVU|language=en|access-date=November 25, 2021}}</ref>

She remained on the show as a series regular for six seasons until 2000 and returned to the show for one episode during its final season in 2009. She won a [[Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series]] in 1994, and was nominated for an Emmy Award every year during her tenure on ''ER''. She was the only series regular cast member to win a [[Primetime Emmy Award]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.emmys.com/bios/julianna-margulies| title= Julianna Margulies |website= emmys.com| publisher= Television Academy}}</ref> She was also nominated four times for a [[Golden Globe Awards|Golden Globe Award]] during the show's tenure.{{Citation needed |date=February 2023}}

Originally, Margulies had signed a five-year contract to work on ''ER''. She extended the contract for a sixth year, but made the "very difficult, painful decision" to opt out of another renewal.<ref name="youtube.com">{{Citation|title=Talking Sopranos #74 w/guest Julianna Margulies (Julianna Skiff) "Johnny Cakes"| date=August 22, 2021 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxC1a2OBV8w|language=en|access-date=November 25, 2021}}</ref> In 2021, she explained in her memoir, ''Sunshine Girl'', that she had been feeling homesick for New York after spending six years filming the show in Los Angeles. She wanted to return to theatre and take on a leading role in ''[[The Mists of Avalon (miniseries)|The Mists of Avalon]]'', a miniseries based on the [[The Mists of Avalon|1983 fantasy novel of the same name]], which she had loved as a child.<ref name="Margulies"/>

In 2021, Margulies said during an interview with [[Michael Imperioli]] and [[Steve Schirripa]], "I thought, didn't I work six years on a show I loved — I loved being on ''ER'', I was so grateful, and it was a great experience — but didn't I work this hard to be able to do theatre for $235 a week without worrying about my rent?"<ref name="youtube.com"/> She explained that, before NBC offered her $27 million to sign on for another two years, she had already helped plan out the conclusion of her character's story arc on the show and mapped out a year's worth of work for herself.<ref name="youtube.com"/>

In a ''[[The New York Times|New York Times]]'' interview with Bill Carter, Margulies shared that another factor in her decision was a desire to protect her ''[[ER (TV series)|ER]]'' character, [[Carol Hathaway]], from certain story changes that were happening as the show continued on into later years. She explained that she didn't like how her character became the focus of too much romance whenever she wasn't with [[George Clooney]]'s character, and that all of the research she had previously done in order to play the character was then undone by certain storylines.<ref name=":1" />

Margulies recalled, "I'll never forget, there was a line [in the script] where [my character] says, 'I had to share a bathroom with seven sisters.' I was like, guys, I've been playing her as an only child for six years…I had actually done research on what it's like to be an only child. I was starting to feel very sad about a character I loved so much. It started to become very clear to me that without George, my character was just going to be the liaison to flashy sort of bits of things instead of one fluent, cognizant thought and I felt sad about it."<ref name=":1">{{Citation|title=A Conversation With Julianna Margulies – Part 4 of 6| date=March 19, 2012 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lm65__1pqVQ|language=en|access-date=November 28, 2021}}</ref>

Had Margulies accepted the $27 million contract for a seventh and eighth year of ''ER'', it would have made her one of the highest paid women on television.<ref>{{Cite web|date=November 12, 1999|title='ER' Star Turns Down $27M Deal|url=https://nypost.com/1999/11/12/er-star-turns-down-27m-deal/|access-date=November 25, 2021|website=New York Post|language=en-US}}</ref> The actress said that she received intense, hurtful backlash for her decision to ultimately leave ''ER'', but was "doing what fed me, as an actor," she said in 2021. "And keeping my promises to playwrights and directors who I'd already made a commitment to."<ref name="youtube.com"/> She also said that she wanted to move on as an actress:

{{blockquote|I had a year's worth of work waiting and a mortgage completely paid at age 32. I was under no illusion that I was going to be some big [[movie star]]. My dad said, 'If you got hit by a bus tomorrow, were you living your life truthfully, or were you waiting to get rich?' If I died and my soul started leaving my body, would I be looking down going, 'You idiot. You could have gone to Prague, you could have been on Broadway'? Those are the things I wanted to do.}}

In an interview with ''TV Guide'', she further explained, "I felt like I had a great character and I did as much as I could do with her, but I was feeling bored. I wasn't excited about the work and I certainly didn't want to go out with a bomb, but as an inspiration."<ref name="tvguide.com">{{Cite web|title=Julianna Margulies: From Scalpels to Snakes|url=https://www.tvguide.com/news/julianna-margulies-scalpels-40662/|access-date=November 24, 2021|website=TVGuide.com|language=en}}</ref>

===2000–2009===
In February 2000, Margulies hosted an episode of the NBC late-night sketch series ''[[Saturday Night Live]]''. She brought on ''ER'' co-star [[Noah Wyle]] for one of the show's sketches.

After leaving ''ER'' as a series regular, Margulies worked on stage and screen. On stage, she appeared in a [[MCC Theater]] production of [[Kate Robin]]'s ''Intrigue With Faye'', a [[Lincoln Center]] production of Jon Robin Baitz's ''Ten Unknowns'', and ''[[The Vagina Monologues]]''.

Her work after ''ER'' included the 2002 films ''[[Evelyn (2002 film)|Evelyn]]'', with [[Pierce Brosnan]], and ''[[Ghost Ship (2002 film)|Ghost Ship]]'', with [[Gabriel Byrne]] and [[Ron Eldard]]. She starred as [[Morgan le Fay|Morgaine]], the [[protagonist]] and narrator of the [[Turner Network Television|TNT]] miniseries ''[[The Mists of Avalon (miniseries)|The Mists of Avalon]]'' (2001) and participated in the documentary film ''[[Searching for Debra Winger]]'' (2002).

In 2004, she guest-starred in a two-episode arc in season four of the hit NBC comedy series ''[[Scrubs (TV series)|Scrubs]]'' as Neena Broderick, an unscrupulous lawyer who sues [[Christopher Turk|Turk]] and has a brief sexual relationship with [[J.D. (Scrubs)|J.D]]. That same year, she starred in another miniseries on TNT, ''[[The Grid (miniseries)|The Grid]]''. In April 2006, she appeared in four episodes of the sixth season of the [[HBO]] crime drama series ''[[The Sopranos]]'', portraying realtor Julianna Skiff. In August 2006, she appeared alongside [[Samuel L. Jackson]] in the action film ''[[Snakes on a Plane]]'', as [[flight attendant]] Claire Miller. In December 2006, she played Jennifer Bloom in the [[Syfy|Syfy Channel]] miniseries ''[[The Lost Room]]''.

In an August 2006 interview with [[TV Guide|tvguide.com]], Margulies said she was close to accepting an offer to return to ''ER'' for a four-episode arc, with [[Noah Wyle]], that filmed in Hawaii during the 2005/06 season. However, she decided against it at the last minute. "I left on very good terms with [''ER'' exec producer] John Wells, and every year they ask me back and I love that they do," she told ''TV Guide'' in 2006. "So, at the last minute, I went, 'John, thank you and keep asking, because you never know, but no.'" <ref name="tvguide.com"/>

Margulies was invited to return during ''ER'''s final season. The actress hesitated, saying she felt like she left [[Carol Hathaway]] in the perfect place and could not imagine bettering her departure episode, but Margulies did return to ''ER'' for one more episode during its 15th and final season.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7732947.stm|title=Margulies turns down ER comeback |access-date=November 23, 2008 | date=November 17, 2008|publisher=BBC News| website= bbc.co.uk}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | title= ER Bringing Back Clooney with Margulies before Checking Out | url= https://www.tvguide.com/News/ER-Clooney-Margulies-1002020.aspx | work= TVGuide.com | year=2009 | access-date=January 21, 2009}}</ref> In a 2013 interview, she said of her appearance, "I called George up and said, 'If you do it, I'll do it.' We were both very aware we had careers because of that show, and we also loved those characters. I remember walking on to the Warner Bros. lot, and they asked for my ID. I used to have my picture on the wall there. It was a little surreal, but a lovely way to come full circle."<ref>{{Cite web|title=Julianna Margulies on separating real life from work|url=https://www.scotsman.com/arts-and-culture/julianna-margulies-separating-real-life-work-1573713|access-date=November 29, 2021|website=www.scotsman.com|date=May 26, 2013 |language=en}}</ref>

In 2019, Margulies was slated to reprise the role of Alicia Florrick for three episodes of ''[[The Good Fight]]'', a spin-off of ''[[The Good Wife]]''. However, negotiations broke down over the question of Margulies' salary, with [[CBS]] offering to pay her at the [[Guest appearance|guest star]] rate instead of the same rate she had been paid on ''The Good Wife''. She stated that: "I watch the show, I love the show. But I'm not a guest star. You don't pay me a guest-star salary. I would get a guest-star salary if I went and did [[Law & Order: Special Victims Unit|''SVU'']]—it's not my show. I wouldn't ask for what I got paid as Alicia Florrick.
