@gracejanegummer has been acting since 2010, but it would have been easy to miss her. But now, thanks to her role as Caroline Kennedy in
@lovestoryfx, she can no longer claim a low profile.
The CULT100 cover star cut her teeth in films like ‘Frances Ha’ and on TV shows like ‘Mr. Robot’ and ‘American Horror Story.’ In ‘Love Story,’ the rare watercooler moment in recent television, Gummer’s Caroline operated as a cool counterweight—JFK Jr.’s clear-eyed older sister who helps to ground a narrative rife with pageantry.
Though she’s thoroughly ensconced in the entertainment world’s most elite circles—she’s the second daughter of Meryl Streep—Gummer pushes back on parallels drawn between hers and Caroline’s life. “I didn’t have that kind of scrutiny,” she tells Elissa Suh in her cover story, noting instead that she was raised in a tiny, secluded Connecticut town by “a very famous mother,” but never sensed herself to be in the public eye. That began to change when she started dating Mark Ronson, who she married in 2021, and has been solidified by her turn in the Ryan Murphy universe.

@valentinobeauty// The 100 individuals on CULTURED’s third annual CULT100 list span disciplines and generations. Some are household names, others operate behind the scenes. All of them are choosing risk over reward, curiosity over cynicism, and are shaping culture in real time. Each offers something that the algorithm never will. //
