Youth and education

Linda Kozlowski was born on January 7, 1958 in Fairfield, Connecticut, USA, where she was raised by her Polish-born parents, Stanislaw ‘Stanley’ Kozlowski and Helena Parniawska, commonly known as Helen E Kozlowski. Linda graduated from Andrew Warde High School in 1976, then graduated from the prestigious Juilliard School in theater and opera.

Career

Kozlowski’s first major performance was in the 1982 off-Broadway production of “Death of a Salesman”, playing Miss Forsythe – in 1985 she signed on to play the same character in the on-screen version of the series . Written by Arthur Miller, the play was considered one of the best plays to come out of the 20^e century. It is the story of a man who discovers that he has lost his identity and cannot accept the changes taking place around him and within himself. The play recounts the last 24 hours of this man’s life, filled with dreams and memories as well as arguments and confrontations with his family. “Death of a Salesman” won both a Tony Award and a Pulitzer Prize in 1949 for Best Play, the year it first opened. It has since run 742 performances and it has been brought back to Broadway four times.

Not only that, but it also won three Tony Awards for Best Revival.

The role that put Kozlowski on the map was the 1986 Australian film “Crocodile Dundee” in which she was cast as the female lead alongside actor Paul Hogan, and is the story of a crocodile hunter Australian by the name of Michael J. Dundee. He lives in outback Australia where he runs a business with a friend of his that takes clients on game drives. A reporter from New York comes to interview Dundee about a terrible crocodile attack where he narrowly escaped death. By showing him around Sue (the journalist) is tied up by a crocodile, but Dundee saves her. Sue asks Michael if he would like to return to New York with her, and having never left Australia, he accepts her offer.,

Dundee soaks up all the new culture and experiences in the city when he falls in love with Sue. Linda’s performances earned her a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actress.

In 1988, Linda was cast in “Pass the Ammo”, a film about a dishonest pastor who preaches on television, and his congregation, who are captured by a woman, two of her cousins ​​and her lover, in an attempt to revenge on the people who stole his inheritance.

In the same year, Kozlowski reprized her role as Sue in the film “Crocodile Dundee 2”. The sequel follows Dundee in his new life in New York, when he is hunted down by a South American drug lord, who kidnaps his girlfriend.

Drug dealers are under the impression that because Sue’s ex-husband has pictures of him committing illegal acts, Sue must have access to them. The drug lord takes her to Colombia to use as collateral to get the photos of him back, however, Dundee tracks them down to come to Sue’s rescue.

1988 continued to be a busy year for Kozlowski, as she appeared in “Favourite Son,” a miniseries about a downed running mate. During the investigation, a conspiracy theory is uncovered. The president’s staff is doing everything possible to ensure that the president is reinstalled in the Oval Office.

Two years later, in 1990, Linda landed a role opposite ‘Crocodile Dundee’ co-star Paul Hogan, who was also the writer of the film called ‘Almost an Angel’. It is the story of a petty criminal involved in a disturbing accident that leads him to believe that he is an angel, and so he decides that he will perform the tasks he feels an angel should.

In 1994, she appeared in two films, first “Backstreet Justice” alongside Paul Sorvino as an investigator haunted by her father’s reputation as a dirty cop. She begins to investigate a series of murders in an unsavory neighborhood, when she stumbles upon new information that could lead her to uncover the truth about her father’s past.

The other 1994 film she was in was “The Neighbor” with Rod Steiger, about a pregnant couple who move into a new house next to a psychopath. The pregnant young woman fears for her unborn baby when the boy next door tells her she reminds him of his dead mother.

To date, the last film Kozlowski appeared in was Crocodile Dundee’s third film, “Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles.” The film follows Dundee and Sue with their young son when they temporarily move to Los Angeles for Sue to run the newspaper his father works for, when the former boss suspiciously dies and the two become involved in the investigation.

When asked why she decided to leave acting, Linda said she was unhappy with the film roles she had been offered, and “those straight-to-video, schlocky films I was getting were giving me an ulcer, basically because I was the only one on set who cared about everything”. She also stated that the fact that she was getting older was the main reason why she decided to quit acting.

Joint

In 1986, on the set of the first “Crocodile Dundee”, Kozlowski met Paul Hogan who was then married. The two fell in love and Hogan filed for divorce so he could marry Linda. The couple married on May 5, 1990. Eight years later they welcomed their son Chance, and Linda and Paul remained married for another 15 years before filing for divorce in October 201; a year later, the divorce was pronounced.

Paul Hogan was born on October 8, 1939 in Sydney, Australia. He is known to have worked on the Sydney Harbor Bridge as a rigger, before becoming a writer, television presenter, comedian and lead actor in the series “Crocodile Dundee”. He also appeared in films such as ‘Almost an Angel’, ‘Lightning Jack’, ‘Flipper’ and ‘Strange Bedfellows’. Paul was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay and was nominated for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy by the Golden Globes, which he went on to win. Hogan was married twice before marrying Linda – with the same women. Noelene Edwards and Paul were married from 1958 to 1981, but divorced less than a year before remarrying.

The couple have five children together, Scott, Clay, Todd, Lauren and Brett Hogan. However, Paul left Noelene for his co-star in what was considered one of Australia’s ugliest celebrity divorces.

Hogan is said to be worth $28million but the actor found himself in hot water with the Australian Taxation Office investigating him for tax evasion but all charges were dropped in 2010.

Other relationships

Linda was reportedly married once before Hogan, but there is no supporting information. Since divorcing Hogan, Kozlowski has remarried business partner Moulay Hafid Babaa of Morocco – Moulay is a tour guide for the company Dream my Destiny which Linda co-founded with him.

The couple have been dating for four years and they have both been spotted wearing gold wedding rings. Hogan’s manager released a statement saying, “Paul is truly delighted with the news of Linda and wishes her every happiness in her new relationship.”
