     Jodie Foster was born on Nobember 19 1962 in Los Angeles Carlif. US. She is an American film
actress who began her career as a mature(成熟的) child actress.
     Jodie began her performing career as a very young child in television appearing first in commercials
(商业广告). She starred in her own short-lived series Paper Moon (1974) based on the 1973 film of
the same name. She appeared in a number of Disney films beginning with Napoleon and Samantha (1972).
     Director Martin Scorsese cast Jodie in a bit part in Alice Doesn't live Here Anymore (1974) before
giving her the role of Iris in Taxi Driver (1976). Her mature performance in Taxi Driver earned her an
Academy Award nomination(提名) as best supporting actress. Her later films as child actress were less
impressive but her performances were always admired. Jodie graduated from Yale University in 1985.
     Perhaps because of her screen image of early maturity Foster was abler to make a relatively smooth
transition to adult roles. In The Accused (1988) she gave a perfect performance as Sarah Tobias. In
The Silence of the Lames (1991) she tracks a killer as FBI agent Clarice Starling. Both performances
won her Academy Awards as best actress.
     In 1990s Jodie went into other areas of filmmaking. She directed her best film Little Man Tate in
1991 in which she also co-starred. In 1994 she co-produced Nell for which she also received an Oscar
nomination for best actress. In 1997 Foster starred in Contact. Her later films included Panic Room (2002) Inside Man (2006) and The Brave One (2007).
