Jodie Foster

Jodie Foster has been a Hollywood presence for so long that it’s difficult to fathom a world without her. The actress, who seems to have been born to be a performer, has been entertaining admirers all over the world since she was just six years old. Foster has shone her skills in cinema to varying degrees. From Taxi Driver to Freaky Friday and Contact, she has demonstrated a breadth that few actors can match.

Foster graced television commercials when she was three years old and had already appeared on television by the age of six in the sitcom Mayberry R.F.D. She would later appear in over 50 television series and advertisements as a youngster, and she was the family’s primary source of income. Fortunately, the Freaky Friday star remained dedicated to the task, and her hard work paid off. She landed a role in Martin Scorsese’s classic Taxi Driver when she was just 12 years old. As a child prodigy who became an acting legend, Foster has had one of Hollywood’s most exciting and gratifying careers.
