Lou Gish (27 May 1967 – 20 February 2006), born Louise Mikel Henrietta Marie Curram, was an English stage, film, and television actress.
Louise Mikel Henrietta Marie Curram was born in London on 27 May 1967, the elder daughter of actors Sheila Gish and Roland Curram.
She was educated at Macaulay Church of England Primary School in Clapham, Alleyns School in Dulwich, and Furzedown School in Wandsworth. After finishing her schooling, she attended the Camberwell College of Arts.
Gish worked in various jobs until her mid-twenties, when she finally realised that what she really wanted to do was act.
Over the course of her career, she played a variety of roles on the stage as well as on screen, in television series and films. She appeared with her sister, Kay Curram, in King Lear at the Chichester Festival Theatre in 2005.
Gish was in a relationship with actor Nicholas Rowe from 2000 until her death from cancer on 20 February 2006, at the age of 38.
Her death came less than a year after her mother, who also died of cancer. Both she and her mother are buried on the eastern side of Highgate Cemetery.[citation needed]
