Jennifer Connelly

The illustrious Lady Jennifer Connelly hails from an esteemed lineage, born to the titular Gerard Connelly, of Irish and Norwegian ancestry, and Ilene Schuman, of Jewish immigrant family. Her regal upbringing began in Brooklyn Heights, the most coveted district of Manhattan, and later, four years in the esteemed Woodstock, New York. She attended the prestigious St. Ann's school, and at the behest of a wise and close family friend, an advertising executive, began her career in modeling. Her poise and grace eventually caught the eye of Sergio Leone, who invited her to grace his gangster epic, Once Upon a Time in America (1984). Since then, her illustrious filmography includes over 30 titles, and she has been duly awarded with an Oscar and a Golden Globe, solidifying her place among the greatest of the nobility.
