The speed at which Jennifer Morrison’s television career has advanced seems like something out of an urban legend, a miracle, or a fairy tale.

Jennifer Marie Morrison was born on April 12, 1979 in Chicago, Illinois. She is the eldest daughter of a teacher couple, and has two brothers. As is often the case with the children of teaching professionals, Jen studied at the school where her parents taught. Such an educational home did not hurt her at all, as she later went on to Loyola University, where she studied English philology and theater. Since the girl was not ugly, and she had worked as a model, the possibilities of devoting herself to acting multiplied.

After going through the Steppenwolf Theater Company, she moved to Los Angeles, the destination of so many who dream of being actresses. She did not do badly, because she, at only 15 years old, gave life to the teenage daughter of Richard Gere and Sharon Stone in Between Two Women (1994). And doing the Christmas Miracle in the City that same year seemed to confirm that his thing, starting at the cinema so early, was close, honoring the film’s title, to the miraculous. However, 5 years passed until she was seen again on the screen, the girl, smart, began to study before returning to the cinematographic pit.

After having a presence in thrillers and horror movies such as The Last Step (1999) and Urban Legend 2 (2000), a time passed of taking what fell, you had to build your career calmly, work and tenacity. Television appeared with Dawson grows , but the hit was hit since 2004 with Dr. Allison Cameron in House , a series that made her very popular. The small screen became a wonderful ally, as she was engaged in such successful series as How I Met Your Mother (2010) and Once Upon a Time (series) (2011). By comparison, her film career hasn’t been nearly as brilliant, even though she’s in Star Trek .(2009), a movie that originated on TV, and directed by JJ Abrams , a director forged on TV, is not bad at all.

About her private life, the latest is that she is dating her fellow television storyteller Sebastian Stan , the Mad Hatter from “Alice in Wonderland” in Once Upon a Time (series) .
