Her career didn't "lose focus". As she's stated in several interviews, she made a decision to devote more time to her family and privileged better paying, shorter commitment film/television roles over long theater runs. She has passed on several Broadway offers in the last few years -- including WAR PAINT, which she developed -- and has said that she took DOLLY specifically because of the reduced schedule it offered. She has a teenage daughter and is now a single parent after losing her husband to cancer.

Her priorities are centered around doing what's best for her family, and that's her decision to make.

Did she pass on the offer to play Rachel Brosnahan's mother on The Marvelous Mrs Maisel..? I ask this question, because the actress who IS playing that role, Marin Hinkle, is surely channeling her inner Donna Murphy in every frame.
