Personal Life

Ross has lived in Malibu, California, since the late 1960s. While at the Actors Workshop in the early 1960s, she lived above a grocer's shop on Stockton Street, and was married to fellow actor Joel Fabiani for six months.

Ross was married to the triple Oscar-winning cinematographer Conrad Hall from June 1970 to 1975, after meeting him on the set of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. They separated in 1973.

She was married to Gaetano Lisi (known as Tom) from 1975 to 1979, after they met when he was a chauffeur and technician on The Stepford Wives.

Ross is now married to actor Sam Elliott, whom she met when they co-starred in the 1978 film The Legacy (one of his first film roles was as 'Card Player #2' in the opening scene of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid). The couple married in 1984 and have a daughter, Cleo Rose Elliott, born in 1984, who is now an aspiring musician in Malibu. In March 2011, Ross got a restraining order against Cleo after Cleo allegedly stabbed her repeatedly with a pair of scissors.

Famous quotes containing the words personal life, personal and/or life:

    A man lives not only his personal life, as an individual, but also, consciously or unconsciously, the life of his epoch and his contemporaries.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    The medium is the message. This is merely to say that the personal and social consequences of any medium—that is, of any extension of ourselves—result from the new scale that is introduced into our affairs by each extension of ourselves, or by any new technology.
    Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    There is a period near the beginning of every man’s life when he has little to cling to except his unmanageable dream, little to support him except good health, and nowhere to go but all over the place.
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
