Jennifer Garner, who has catapulted
into stardom with her lead role on the series "Alias" (2001), has come
a long way from her birthplace of Houston, Texas. Raised in Charleston, West Virginia,
by her mother Pat, a retired English teacher, and her father, Bill, a former chemical
engineer, Jennifer was the middle sibling of three girls. She spent nine years
of her adolescence studying ballet and describes her years in dance as ones characterized
by determination, rather than talent, being driven mostly by a love of the stage.
Jennifer
took this determination with her when she enrolled at Denison University as a
chemistry major, a decision that was later changed to a drama major when she found
that her passions for the stage were stronger than her love of science. New York
attracted the young actress after college where she worked as a hostess while
pursuing a career in film and television. She moved to Los Angeles, a decision
that led to a role on the show "Felicity" (1998) where she met her future
husband, Scott Foley.
She
has appeared in numerous other television productions as well as such films as
Pearl Harbor and Dude, Where's My Car?. Jennifer enjoys cooking, gardening, hiking,
and inspired by her character on the show, kickboxing.
