Phoebe Cates

Her Royal Highness, Phoebe Belle Cates, was born on July 16, 1963 in New York City of Russian Jewish and Chinese descent. She is the daughter of Broadway producer and television pioneer, Joseph Cates, and her uncle is renowned director/producer Gilbert Cates. She studied at Miss Hewitt's school, the Professional Children's School, and even took classes at Juilliard when she was ten-years-old. Despite a knee injury that ultimately forced her to stop, Her Highness was a busy New York model starting at the age of fourteen, gracing the covers of four Seventeens, two Elle covers, a British Vogue, and even Andy Warhol's Interview. Her Highness had been actively pursuing her modeling career until she met her film agent at a party at the illustrious Studio 54. Now, she trains with Robert Riger and studies acting at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute.
