Uma Thurman is a famous American actress, model, mother of three children and a woman with incredible charm and a sense of humor. Many directors dream of getting her into their project, and fashion houses consider it an honor to see her on the red carpet in their outfits.
The beginning of the way
Uma Thurman swarmed in Boston in April 1970. Her father was a professor and specialist in Eastern religions, and her mother was a model. Children were brought up in accordance with the basic canons of Buddhism. Even the name of the girl was given in honor of the Hindu goddess of beauty and light.
At an early age, the young lady realized that she wanted to be an actress, so at the age of fifteen she dropped out of school and moved to New York. To pay for acting classes, Uma had to work as a waitress.
The young actress managed to break into the world of show business not immediately, so from time to time she worked as a model.
High growth (about 183 cm) and a very outstanding appearance helped her achieve some success in this field. However, in childhood, she was often teased, and her mother even advised her to have rhinoplasty. Later, already being a famous actress, Uma Thurman often took part in various advertising companies - the most famous of them are cooperation with the brands LV and Givenchy.
The first picture of Uma was the film "Daddy's Kiss for the Night", and she managed to attract the attention of film critics and directors after the release of "Dangerous Links".
To new career heights
In the filmography of the actress, there are pictures of various genres and directions. She impressed the audience with her frankness in the film "Henry and June", where she got the role of the wife of the writer Henry Miller. The film itself turned out to be quite scandalous, some even hung a stamp on it - "pornography".
The real success came to Uma after working in the cult film "Pulp Fiction". And in 2002, Thurman received her first golden globe for her role in the movie Hysterical Blindness.
Nevertheless, most of all Uma Thurman was remembered by the audience in the film "Kill Bill" and "Kill Bill -2". These projects brought worldwide fame to both Quentin Tarantino and the actress herself.
And many fans of her talent even began to sweep yellow tracksuits with a store counter in order to somehow resemble her heroine.
Personal life
The actress was married several times. The first marriage with actor Harry Oldman lasted about 2 years. Due to the tight shooting schedule, the couple simply did not have time for each other.
The second time the actress married actor Eaton Hawke. In marriage, they had two children - daughter Maya and son Levon. In 2004, this union broke up. The reason for the divorce is still unknown. There were rumors in the press that Hawke had cheated on his wife with a young model, suspecting her in connection with Tarantino.
Currently, the actress lives with financier Arpad Busson. In 2012, they had a daughter, Rosalind.
