The Big Picture: Joan Cusack Career & Biographical Notes: Was a regular cast member on Saturday Night Live for one year in 1985, but left because she felt there was a lack of quality material for women on the show Has appeared in 10 films with her brother John Cusack Was replaced by Bette Midler in The Stepford Wives remake so she could tend to her ill father Would prefer you refer to her as John's *younger* sister, thank you very much
