Showtime's comedy, "United States of Tara," executive produced by Steven Spielberg, created by Diablo Cody and starring Academy Award-nominated actress Toni Collette, focuses on a wife and mother struggling with dissociative identity disorder and the effect it has on her family. "United States of Tara," a co-production of Showtime Networks and Dreamworks Television, also stars John Corbett and Rosemarie DeWitt.

On "United States of Tara," suburban wife and mother Tara Gregson (Toni Collette), juggles her family and career while suffering from Dissociative Identity Disorder. It's never a dull moment in the Gregson household as the various identities may appear on any given day and range in age, temperament and even gender...from "T," a flirtatious and spunky teenager to "Buck," a gun-loving male alter…all while her supportive husband Max (John Corbett) and their two teenaged children, Kate (Brie Larson) and Marshall (Keir Gilchrist), try to lead as much of a "normal" life as possible on "United States of Tara."
