Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Veteran stage actress Natalie West began her acting career in the early 1980s with performances in several plays in theaters throughout Chicago. West's talent caught the interest of a television writer who encouraged her to tape a reading for the part of Crystal, the quirky and tenderhearted family-friend in the American sitcom Roseanne (1988); West thought little of this but eventually auditioned for the role and won the part. Although a regular in the series, the character's presence dwindled as the series evolved. West primarily focused on theater and later appeared in a leading role in Nate & Margaret (2012), playing Margaret, an aging spinster in a perfectly functioning friendship with Nate, a 19-year-old film student determined to make it in the movie business. West's performance earned a FilmOut Audience Award for Best Actress.
