During her teenage years, she held various part-time jobs, including working at McDonald’s and Pizza Hut. Her early life was marked by personal challenges, including the loss of her mother to chronic alcoholism in 1981, when MacDowell was just 23 years old.
MacDowell began her professional career as a fashion model, quickly gaining prominence through high-profile campaigns. Her success in modeling led to her film debut in 1984's Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, though her role was dubbed due to her Southern accent. Despite this, she continued to make strides in the acting world and received widespread recognition for her performance in Steven Soderbergh’s 1989 drama Sex, Lies, and Videotape. The role earned her a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress – Motion Picture Drama and marked a turning point in her acting career.
Throughout the 1990s, MacDowell starred in several successful films, with standout performances in Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) and Groundhog Day (1993).

Additionally, she starred in the Western action film Bad Girls (1994).
Beyond film, MacDowell has been a long-time spokesperson for International L’Oréal, representing the brand for over twenty-five years. Her enduring presence in both the fashion and entertainment industries underscores her versatility and staying power.
In 1986, MacDowell married fellow model Paul Qualley, whom she met while working on a GAP advertisement. The couple had three children: a son, Justin, and two daughters, Rainey and Sarah Margaret, both of whom have pursued careers in the entertainment industry. MacDowell and Qualley divorced in 1999.
In 2001, she married Rhett Hartzog, a former high school classmate. However, this marriage ended in divorce less than three years later. As of recent years, MacDowell has focused on her family and ongoing work in film and television.
In 1991, People magazine included Andie MacDowell in its annual list of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the World, highlighting her status as both a beauty icon and a respected actress.
