Born in Upper West Side of New York City, Rabe is the daughter of David Rabe, a playwright, and Jill Clayburgh, an actress. She was raised in Bedford, but then spent most of her time growing up in Lakeville, Connecticut where she attended Hotchkiss School.
Rabe originally planned to be a dancer, and studied dance for ten years, and even taught at a summer arts program in Connecticut where she had to perform a monologue for the play “Crimes of the Heart,” which actually signaled a change of heart for her, and she decided to pursue an acting career instead. She subsequently attended Northwestern University to study acting, from where she graduated in 2004.
In 2001, Rabe began her career in the world of acting, appearing in the film “Never Again” with her mother Jill Clayburgh. It was then followed by her first stage production entitled “Speaking Well of the Dead” and “The Crazy Girl”, and she also appeared alongside Julia Roberts in the movie “Mona Lisa Smile.” Her early years in acting certainly helped set up her career, and her was the basis for her net worth.
In 2005, Rabe received a nomination from the Drama Desk Award for her performance in the stage production of “Steel Magnolias”; other notable productions that she has appeared in include “Heartbreak House” and “Crimes of the Heart”. In 2010, she also made her debut in Shakespeare in the Park for the production of “The Merchant of Venice”, for which she received a nomination for the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Play.
After years appearing in various television shows and movies, Rabe finally made a breakthrough on TV, when she was cast in the hit show “American Horror Story”. She appeared in the first season as Nora Montgomery, in the second as Sister Mary Eunice McKee, and in the third as Misty Day, and subsequently made appearances in the fourth and fifth seasons of the show, and in a main role in the sixth season playing the character of Shelby Miller. The success of the show helped with her success too, helping to increase her wealth too.
Today, Rabe is still active as an actress and was recently cast in the show “Golden Exits.”
In terms of her personal life, Lily Rabe has been in a relationship with actor Hamish Linklater since 2013, and they have one child together.
