Jennifer Aniston

Aniston was born on February 11, 1969. She lives in Los Angeles.

Born in Sherman Oaks, CA and raised in New York City, Jennifer Aniston is a versatile actress who was exposed to acting at an early age by her father, John Aniston, who starred for several years on the daytime drama "Days of Our Lives," and her godfather, the late Telly Savalas.

Aniston, who is of Greek descent, spent a year of her childhood living in Greece with her family, but relocated to New York when her father landed a role on the daytime drama, "Love of Life." She had her first taste of acting at age 11 when she joined the Rudolf Steiner School's drama club. Aniston said, "I was always fascinated by acting, but my experience at Rudolf Steiner encouraged me to pursue it as a career." She added, "Steiner was a free-spirited school that encouraged creativity and individualism."

Her experience at the Rudolf Steiner School also helped Aniston develop a passion for art. At age 11, one of Aniston's paintings was selected to be displayed in an exhibit at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art.

She began her professional training as a drama student at New York's High School of the Performing Arts. After graduating in 1987, Aniston won roles in such Off-Broadway productions as "For Dear Life" at New York's Public Theatre and "Dancing on Checker's Grave." In 1989, she landed her first television role as a series regular on "Molloy."

She devotes a considerable amount of time to art projects, and has completed several paintings as well as works of art in charcoal and clay. She also enjoys hiking, camping and virtually anything that brings her closer to nature.

On July 29'th 2000, Jennifer married actor Brad Pitt. The rumors now say that Jennifer's pregnant and that the writers of Friends are already planning how to fit that into the show.
