Jennifer Lawrence

Blessed with talent, beauty and charm to spare, Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence is equally at home in big-budget blockbusters and smaller indie fare. Dazzling on red carpets and refreshingly candid in interviews, she is a favorite on the talk-show circuit. Born in 1990 in Louisville, Ky., Jennifer was a teenager when she appeared on ‘The Bill Engvall Show’ for three seasons. Her breakout role was in the acclaimed 2010 independent film ‘Winter’s Bone,’ for which she received a Best Actress Academy Award nomination. Roles in films such as ‘X Men: First Class’ followed, but she became a household name starring as Katniss Everdeen in the ‘Hunger Games’ franchise. She won a Best Actress Oscar for her work in David O. Russell’s ‘Silver Linings Playbook’ and later scored her third Academy Award nod with Russell’s ‘American Hustle.’
