About

Jennifer Joanna Aniston was born on February 11, 1969, in Sherman Oaks, California. She is the daughter of Greek actor John Aniston and American actress Nancy Dow. Aniston has two half-brothers from her father's second marriage, and she also has a half-brother from her mother’s later relationship with actor Telly Savalas. Growing up, Aniston had to move around a lot due to her parents' unstable marriage. 

At age 11 she studied at the Rudolf Steiner School in New York City and then moved on to Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts in Manhattan. After graduating high school in 1987, she attended New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts but dropped out after one semester.

Aniston began her acting career in 1989 after appearing as a child actress in Off-Broadway productions such as For Dear Life and Dancing on Checker's Grave. In 1991 she made her television debut on the sitcom Molloy and went on to star in other shows such as The Edge, Herman’s Head, Ferris Bueller, The Wonder Years, and Friends (where she played Rachel Green). Her performance on Friends earned her an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series as well as two Golden Globe Awards for Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series - Musical or Comedy. 

Aniston also starred in several blockbuster films including Bruce Almighty (2003), Along Came Polly (2004), Marley & Me (2008), Just Go with It (2011), Horrible Bosses (2011) and We’re the Millers (2013). In 2015, Forbes listed Aniston among Hollywood's highest paid actresses for the first time ever. She has also used her fame to advocate for many charitable causes such as St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, UNICEF, Feeding America and World Food Program USA.
