-

There are early starters, then there’s Jodie Foster, who started in commercial­s at the age of two! After the Doris Day Show and The Partridge Family, she graduated to the big screen, and by 13 had already received ana Oscar nomination for her role alongside Robert De Niro in Taxii Driver. e After taking time out to gain a literature degree from Yale University, Jodie won two Oscars in three years – for The Accused and Silence Of The Lambs, perhaps her most famous role. Although she works less these days, she still pops up on screen and has had success behind the scenes as a director.
