Laura Jeanne Reese Witherspoon was born on 22 March 1972 in New Orleans. She spent the first 4 years of her life in Germany after which her family moved back to the USA and settled in Nashville, Tennessee. Reese began modelling at the age of 7, which led to television commercials. She made her big screen debut in 1990 in The Man in The Moon.

Reese won several Best Actress awards for her portrayal of June Carter in Walk The Line (2005) including an Oscar (Academy Award), Bafta and a Golden Globe. She has also received several awards and nominations for her performances in other movies.

One of her recent movies was Rendition in which she starred with Jake Gyllenhaal, who became her sweetheart. The film was directed by South African director Gavin Hood. (Following the success of Tsotsi, a South African movie that won the best foreign film Oscar, Hood was given the opportunity to direct Hollywood movies, starting with Rendition and then following with X-men Origins: Wolverine.)

Reese is known for her un-conventional cuteness and for playing quirky, edgy and off-beat characters. She’s one of my favourite actresses and definitely features in several of my DVDs.
