That's right, the incredible Michelle Williams is from Montana. Born in Kalispell, Michelle Williams has been one of the best actresses over the past decade, racking constant award nominations from the Academy Awards, Golden Globes, and Primetime Emmys.

Michelle Williams is one of the best working actresses today and has been featured in films like Shutter Island, The Fabelmans, Blue Valentine, Manchester By The Sea, and countless others.

We would bet money she will be winning an Oscar soon. She's been nominated five times in her career so far.
