Gordon was raised in LA (where she met Platt as a kid) and eventually moved to New York City to pursue acting. Both her parents are also in the industry. Her dad is director Bryan Gordon, while her mom is writer-director Jessie Nelson.
In 2021, she talked to The Independent about how watching her parents’ careers gave her a unique perspective on the industry. “I think growing up and watching my parents succeed, then not succeed, watching their friends succeed and not succeed, it was like, ‘Oh, this is like such a beautiful, wildly insane career that can bring so much fun and glamour and amazingness,'” Gordon explained. “But also it’s like, ‘Oh, this is a really hard job.’ Unless you have really thick skin, which me and my family do not have.”
Gordon also appeared in her mom’s 2015 movie “Love the Coopers.” The movie’s sprawling ensemble includes Timothée Chalamet, Amanda Seyfried, Diane Keaton, and Steve Martin.
In a July 10 interview with Vogue, Gordon said of growing up with her parents, “I’ve always been like a little, annoying Shirley Temple — always moving and dancing around and wanting to make up stories. And I think because I’m an only child, my parents would bring me to dinner parties and I would always have a seat at the table.”
