Her mother, a postal worker, wanted to keep her daughter active, so she enrolled Chandra in a litany of after - school activities that would set the course for her show business career. `` Starting at age four, my mom decided that she was not going to have an idle child in the house, '' Wilson recalls. `` So I started taking dance lessons on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and then I was in acting classes on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and I was also modeling on Saturdays. And that was my childhood. '' `` My first show was The King and I when I was five '' she said in a interview with Broadway.com. By the age of five, Wilson was performing in musicals with Houston 's Theatre Under the Stars Company. She attended Houston 's High School for the Performing and Visual Arts and continued on to New York University 's Tisch School of the Arts, graduating with a BFA in drama in 1991. For the next four years, from 1991 -- 95, she studied at the Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute while at the same time racking up professional theater credits. She made her New York debut in a 1991 production of The Good Times Are Killing Me and won a Theater World Award for Outstanding Debut Performance. Her other early stage credits include off - Broadway productions of Paper Moon : The Musical and Little Shop of Horrors. While she was making a name for herself on the New York stage, Wilson also began to land guest spots on a variety of prime - time television shows. She appeared on The Cosby Show ( 1989 ), Law & Order ( 1992 ) and CBS ' Schoolbreak Special ( 1992 ). She made her big - screen debut alongside Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington in the highly acclaimed 1993 film Philadelphia. Despite receiving high praise for nearly all of her performances, however, Wilson struggled for many years to gain more prominent roles. For eight years, while she tried to break into major stardom, Wilson worked part - time as a teller at Deutsche Bank in order to make ends meet. In 2005, Wilson landed her breakthrough role as Dr. Miranda Bailey on the hit ABC show Grey 's Anatomy. Career Wilson 's first regular network TV role was in the short - lived series Bob Patterson ( 2001 ), a post-Seinfeld vehicle for Jason Alexander. In a review for USA Today, Robert Bianco called Wilson `` the only person in the show you can imagine wanting to see again ''. Similarly, the Los Angeles Times said, `` The only character here that 's amusingly written is Bob 's new assistant, Claudia ( Chandra Wilson ) ''. She also appeared on Third Watch ( 2001 ), Law & Order SVU, Sex and the City ( 2002 ), and The Sopranos ( 2004 ), and had a small role in Lone Star ( 1996 ). Wilson also had career in theater, where she played Bonna Willis in The Good Times Are Killing Me, and was featured in the Tony - nominated musical Caroline, or Change. Wilson is an accomplished singer and has sung in several productions, including On the Town ( 1998 ), Avenue Q ( 2003 ) and Caroline, or Change ( 2004 ). Wilson worked as a temp at Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown where she made presentations for the investment banking units. She worked at the Banker 's Trust location on 130 Liberty Street, right across the street from the South Tower of the World Trade Center through 9 - 11 when that building was lost to the terrorist attacks. Wilson was still working at a bank when she auditioned for the Grey 's Anatomy pilot. She was cast as Miranda Bailey, a role initially envisioned as a blond Caucasian woman. The show became a success. Wilson was nominated in 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 for an Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama. She was nominated and won the Screen Actors Guild Award in 2007 for Outstanding Female Actor in a Drama Series ; she also won a SAG Award as part of the Grey 's Anatomy cast, which won Best Ensemble in a Drama Series.

The part of Dr. Bailey, supervisor to the hospital interns, had been written for a petite, Caucasian blonde, but Wilson, a full - figured African - American woman, gave such an impressive audition that the show 's producers decided to give her the part. `` Besides, '' she later joked, `` I knew the casting director. '' Wilson earned rave reviews for her performance as the tough - as - nails Dr. Bailey.

In 2009, while still starring on Grey 's Anatomy, Wilson took a brief hiatus from the show to go to Broadway as Mama Morton in a revival of Chicago. Wilson said the only difference between her acting career now and her acting career a decade ago is that people actually recognize her on the street. `` The only difference in my career now is the visibility I have, '' she insisted. `` People say I made it now, but I feel like I made it doing summer stock. '' She is also clear - headed about the fragility of her new - found fame and fortune. Upon finally leaving her job at Deutsche Bank to focus solely on her role in Grey 's Anatomy, Wilson was careful not to burn any bridges. She said, `` They told me I could come back if acting does n't work out. I told them, ' Keep my seat warm. ' '' In 2014, Wilson made a guest starring appearance on the ABC Daytime soap opera General Hospital as patient Tina Estrada. In 2018, she will appear on General Hospital as Dr. Linda Massey.
