Through her brother Eric Roberts she slid into the film business. Her sister Lisa is also an actress. After a few hours of acting lessons, she starred opposite her brother in Blood Red (1989). Roberts embodied her first leading role in the comedy “Pizza Pizza – A Piece of Heaven” (1988). This role earned her her first Oscar nomination.
