Four of her films are preserved in the [[National Film Registry]] by the [[Library of Congress]].
Born in [[Texas]], Duvall was discovered by Altman, who was impressed by her upbeat presence and cast her in the [[black comedy film]] ''[[Brewster McCloud]]'' (1970). Though hesitant to become an actress, she continued to work with him, appearing in the [[Western film|Western films]] ''[[McCabe & Mrs. Miller]]'' (1971) and the [[crime film]] ''[[Thieves Like Us (film)|Thieves Like Us]]'' (1974). Her [[breakthrough role|breakthrough]] came with his [[musical film]] ''[[Nashville (film)|Nashville]]'' (1975), and she won acclaim for starring in his [[Drama (film and television)|drama film]] ''[[3 Women]]'' (1977). She followed this with a supporting role in [[Woody Allen]]'s [[Romantic comedy|romantic comedy film]] ''[[Annie Hall]]'' (1977).
Duvall gained further prominence for her leading roles as [[Wendy Torrance]] in [[Stanley Kubrick]]'s horror film ''[[The Shining (film)|The Shining]]'' and [[Olive Oyl]] in Altman's [[adventure film]] ''[[Popeye (film)|Popeye]]'', both in 1980.

She ventured into producing television programming aimed at children and youth in the latter half of the 1980s, creating and hosting the programs ''[[Faerie Tale Theatre]]'' (1982–1987), ''[[Tall Tales & Legends]]'' (1985–1987), ''[[Nightmare Classics]]'' (1989) and ''[[Shelley Duvall's Bedtime Stories

Duvall's next role was portraying [[Wendy Torrance]] in the horror film ''[[The Shining (film)|The Shining]]'' (1980), directed by [[Stanley Kubrick]]. [[Jack Nicholson]] said in the 2001 documentary ''[[Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures]]'' that Kubrick was great to work with but that he was "a different director" with her. Because of his methodical nature, [[principal photography]] took a year to complete. The film's script was changed so often that Nicholson stopped reading each draft. Kubrick antagonized his actors, and he and she argued frequently. He intentionally isolated her and went through exhausting shoots, such as the [[baseball bat]] scene, which she had performed 127 times.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Abbott|first=Christian|date=February 19, 2022|title=The Shining: Shelley Duvall's 'unbearable' ordeal on Stanley Kubrick film: 'Excruciating'|url=https://www.express.co.uk/entertainment/films/1568628/The-Shining-Shelley-Duvall-Stanley-Kubrick-excruciating-Jack-Nicholson|access-date=February 23, 2022|website=Express.co.uk|language=en|archive-date=February 23, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220223180754/https://www.express.co.uk/entertainment/films/1568628/The-Shining-Shelley-Duvall-Stanley-Kubrick-excruciating-Jack-Nicholson|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="today-shining">{{cite news |last1=Vivinetto |first1=Gina |title=Shelley Duvall and 'The Shining': What she said about her experiences |url=https://www.today.com/popculture/movies/shelley-duvall-the-shining-rcna161391 |access-date=July 12, 2024 |work=Today |date=July 11, 2024 |archive-date=July 13, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240713014848/https://www.today.com/popculture/movies/shelley-duvall-the-shining-rcna161391 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite magazine |last=Greene |first=Andy |date=July 11, 2024 |title=Flashback: Shelley Duvall Battles Jack Nicholson in 'The Shining' |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-features/shelley-duvall-battles-jack-nicholson-the-shining-1235058207/ |access-date=July 14, 2024 |magazine=Rolling Stone |language=en-US}}</ref> Afterward, she presented Kubrick with clumps of hair that had fallen out due to the extreme stress of filming.<ref>{{cite journal| title=Roles that Drove Actors Over the Edge: Shelly Duvall in 'The Shining'|url=http://www.looper.com/1970/roles-drove-actors-edge/| journal=Looper| date=July 28, 2015| access-date=November 3, 2015| archive-date=October 31, 2015| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151031120718/http://www.looper.com/1970/roles-drove-actors-edge/| url-status=live}}</ref> For the last nine months of shooting, she said that the role required her to cry twelve hours a day, five or six days a week,<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/arts-entertainment/2022/04/02/razzies-revoke-shining-award/ Razzles revoke shining award] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230420155203/https://www.washingtonpost.com/arts-entertainment/2022/04/02/razzies-revoke-shining-award/ |date=April 20, 2023 }} The Washington Post.
