Lou's Journey
Biography
Born in Erath County, Texas, Gideon was a jazz singer in Europe and Asia before becoming an actress in the US. Gideon earned Bachelor of Arts degree at Baylor University in Waco, Texas (1978); she majored in oral communications (radio-television-film). In her freshman year, she was voted as a "Baylor Beauty" - rare for a freshman.
In 2006, she left Los Angeles for the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, where she continued her career as a writer and stage actress. She successfully battled breast cancer in 2009, and in 2011 married her long-time partner, veteran entertainment executive Walt Borchers. The ceremony took place in Lake Como, Italy, and was presided over by her close friend Bryan Cranston. Her cancer returned in late 2013 and she died surrounded by loved ones on February 3, 2014, at age 58.
