The 'Parenthood' Cast's Real-Life Family Ties!

NBC

Camille Braverman
(BONNIE BEDELIA)

As the strong, cool-headed matriarch, Bonnie Bedelia plays the anchor of the Braverman brood -- namely, Camille's opinionated husband and their four grown children, all of whom are now dealing with their own lively families. In real life, Bedelia is married to actor Michael MacRae and has no children of her own, but she's the aunt of some pretty famous nephews (Macaulay, Kieran and Rory Culkin -- their father, Kit Culkin, is Bedelia's brother). Talent certainly runs in the family!
