From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Donna Reed (January 27, 1921 – January 14, 1986) was an American film and television actress. She received the 1953 Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance as Lorene, a prostitute, in From Here to Eternity, and received the 1963 Golden Globe Award for Best TV Star - Female for her performance as Donna Stone, an American middle class wife and mother, in The Donna Reed Show.
