"I'm
too tall to be a girl. I'm between a chick and a broad."
-Julia Roberts
Everyone has come
to recognize Julia Roberts' million-dollar smile. It's that smile, coupled
with talent and remarkable charm that have led to Julia Roberts becoming
the highest-paid actress, and to many, the girl next door.
Julie Fiona Roberts was born October 28, 1967, in Smyrna, Georgia. The
daughter of a vacuum salesman and a church secretary, Julia is not the
only Roberts sibling to pursue an acting career. Her bother and sister
were also aspiring actors, albeit not as famous as Julia. Case in point:
few even know their names.
A seventeen-year old girl with big dreams headed to the Big Apple to
join her actress sister. Starting out as a model in order to make a
living, Julia also took acting classes in order to perfect her trade. She
finally received her big break after her brother, B-movie actor Eric
Roberts, convinced a director to cast his little sister in the film
Blood Red. While the film was only released four years after its
completion, Julia appeared on the television series Crime Story.
