Born Nov. 19, 1962, in Los Angeles, Jodie Foster landed her first acting job as an adorable tyke in a Coppertone commercial. She soon became a television mainstay, starring in shows such as "My Three Sons," "The Courtship of Eddie's Father" and "The Partridge Family."Her breakthrough role came in Martin Scorsese's gritty Taxi Driver, in which she played a 12-year-old prostitute and for which she won many industry accolades.

She's also starred in Little Man Tate (1991), Nell (1994), Contact (1997) and Panic Room (2002).
