| Jodie Foster Biography |
Jodie Foster has, literally, given her life to showbusiness. She began modeling at age three, as the charming but embarrassingly exposed little girl on the Coppertone Tanning Lotion billboards. Roles in some forty commercials and such television shows as The Courtship of Eddie?s Father (1969), Mayberry RFD (1969), The Partridge Family (1970), and My Three Sons (1972) led to her first movie, Napoleon and Samantha (1972).
Before her big break -- an Oscar nominated performance at age 14 in Taxi Driver (which also won for the young actor a New York Film Critics Circle award, a Los Angeles Film Critics? Association award and two British Academy awards) -- Foster had more than 18 television shows and eleven movies to her credit. Fellow cast members remember her precocious intelligence and dedication, and a marked businesslike attitude. |
