Uma Karuna Thurman was born
April 29, 1970, in Boston, Massachusetts. Her eccentric, multi-cultural upbringing
-- her mother Nena is a former psychotherapist while her father Robert A.F. Thurman
is a Tibetan Buddhist monk, and a University of Columbia professor -- could explain
the unique names of the Thurman siblings, Dechen, Ganden and Mipam.
Uma
Thurman is one of Hollywood's enigma actresses. Just as easily as she does a small
art house movie, she does a big blockbuster, and just as she seems to be everywhere,
she disappears into obscurity. This beautiful and talented actress has always
kept her fans (and her producers) wondering about which direction she will go
in her next film: incest, glamour, murder, deceit, or pure evil.
After
earning recognition as one of Hollywood's A-list actresses as the eccentric Mia
Wallace in Pulp Fiction, Uma entered the realm of Gotham City as the venemous
Poison Ivy in Batman and Robin.
"Tall,
sandy blonde, with sort of blue eyes, skinny in places, fat in others. An average
gal."
