She earned an Academy Award nomination for "Bullets Over Broadway" (1994) and is recognized as Tiffany Valentine in the "Chucky" franchise, the voice of Bonnie Swanson in "Family Guy", and Celia in Pixar's "Monsters, Inc."

Tilly's interest in poker began long before she became a familiar face on televised cash games. While filming the television series "Key West" in 1993, she played in regular games with fellow cast members. She later met professional poker player Phil Laak, nicknamed "The Unabomber," at a 2004 World Poker Tour celebrity event - a relationship that inspired her poker nickname, "The Unabombshell."

Though best known as an actress, Tilly has also become a respected figure in televised poker, appearing on "High Stakes Poker", "Poker After Dark", "Poker Night in America", and "The Big Game". She favors the social atmosphere of live cash games and was inducted into the Women in Poker Hall of Fame in 2022.

Away from the table, Tilly is passionate about vintage fashion, and her glamorous personal style includes a collection of hundreds of vintage hats. She joined "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" in 2024 as a friend of the cast and continues to balance acting, entertainment appearances, and poker. With her charisma and playful presence, she has become one of the most recognizable celebrity players in the game.
