Gwyneth Kate Paltrow (born September 28, 1972) is an American actress.
Although several of her most acclaimed performances were roles as English women (Emma and Viola in Shakespeare in Love) and she has a WASPy appearance, Paltrow is actually Scottish-Irish on her mother's side and Russian Jewish on her father's side. She is the daughter of the late television producer and director Bruce Paltrow and the actress Blythe Danner. She studied Art History at the University of California, Santa Barbara before committing herself to acting. Paltrow has a younger brother named Jake and is a cousin of actress
Katherine Moennig.
Born in Los Angeles, her debut film was
Shout (1991) and she played in
Steven Spielberg's Hook
(1991) before starring in Se7en (1995) and dating her co-star
Brad Pitt. Their relationship was much publicized, just like their break-up two years later. Her performance in
Emma (1996) received its share of praise.
She was awarded the Academy Award for Best Actress two years later for her performance in
Shakespeare in Love (1998). Much attention was drawn to her at this event as a consequence of her bursting into tears during her acceptance speech.
Paltrow gave birth to her first child, Apple Blythe Alison Martin, on May 13 2004 with husband Chris Martin of the group Coldplay, whom she married in secret on 5 December, 2003. She was previously engaged to
Brad Pitt and dated
Ben Affleck while both she and Affleck worked on
Shakespeare in Love. She picked the name because "Apples are so sweet..."
Paltrow is also a vegetarian.
