Appearing in television, theater and of course movies since the 80s, she has had tremendous success topping out with an Oscar, a Tony and several Prime Time Emmy nominations. ( If her latest role of Margaret Wright in CBS’s So Help Me Todd keeps up the quality it has shown so far and lands the 2023 Emmy she will get her Triple Crown of Acting – one of the most lauded achievements in Hollywood!) While So Help Me… is primarily grounded in legal drama, Harden believes that it has a little bit of everything. “It’s not your normal show. It’s an hour-long procedural with comedy, drama, family, and a clue trail. To me, it’s not your regular procedural about fire, or crime, or whatever — it’s not just gore and guts.” Her character navigates a relationship between herself, Todd, her son and a private investigator with dry humor and wit through well observed interactions and dialogue.
