Always the performer, Penélope Cruz (born April 28, 1974, in Madrid) began reenacting TV commercials when she was a toddler and studied classical ballet during her youth. Her big break, however, came at age 15 when she beat out hundreds of girls at a talent agency audition.Cruz captured audiences' attention with her roles in 1992's Jamon, Jamon and Belle Epoque (which received an Oscar nod for Best Foreign Film). In 1999, her work with director Pedro Almodovar on the Best Foreign Film Oscar winner All About My Mother brought her first international recognition.
Fluent in Spanish, Italian, French and English, Cruz continues to work in American and international productions, appearing in such films as All the Pretty Horses (2000) and Vanilla Sky (a remake of Eduardo Noriega's Open Your Eyes, in which she also starred). Her turn in Almodovar's Volver (2006) gained her an Oscar nod and Woody Allen's Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008) netted her her first Oscar win.
