Michelle Pfeiffer was born to Dick and Donna Pfeiffer. She has an older brother and two younger sisters - Dedee Pfeiffer, and Lori Pfeiffer, who both engage in acting and modeling but decided against making it their lives' work.

She graduated from Fountain Valley High School in 1976, and attended one year at the Golden West College, where she studied to become a court reporter. While working as a supermarket checker at Vons grocery chain, she realized her true calling.

She was married to actor/director Peter Horton in 1981. Later divorced. Michelle Pfeiffer decided that she did not want to wait any longer before having her own family, and in March(1993), she adopted a baby girl, Claudia Rose.

On November 13th of the same year, she married lawyer-turned-writer/producer David E. Kelley, creator of "Picket Fences", "Chicago Hope", "The Practice", and "Boston Public". On August 5, 1994 their son, John Henry was born.

Personal Quotes

I still think people will find out that I'm really not very talented. I'm really not very good. It's all just been a big sham.

[On playing her part of Claire Spencer in What Lies Beneath (2000)] "I thought about Drew Barrymore in the first Scream (1996/I) - I mean, ultimately that movie was more funny than scary, but the opening sequence was quite terrifying, and she portrayed terror in a way I'd never seen an actress do."

[On wearing her costume in Batman Returns (1992) for the first time]: "I thought to myself 'I can't move, I can't breathe, I can't think. I'm unhappy. I can't act'."

[on cosmetic surgery] "If that nose or those jowls bother you, do it! But this epidemic of people losing sight of what looks good, the distortion that has been going on is creepy."

I act for free, but I demand a huge salary as compensation for all the annoyance of being a public personality. In that sense, I earn every dime I make.

Ultimately, I believe the only secret to a happy marriage is choosing the right person. Life is a series of choices, right?

I was shocked at the prejudice, voiced in some quarters, over my decision to adopt a mixed-race baby. It's really surprising that people still put so much emphasis on it. None of us are pure anything. We're all a mixture. Claudia is a beautiful child, and some of the most beautiful people I've seen in the world have been of mixed race. As mother of both an adopted child and my own birth-child, there is absolutely no difference in the huge amount of love I feel for both my children. I always knew I wanted to adopt a child and also have one of my own. There is no difference at all.

I have to say this singing was harder than any I've done before. The melodies are so fast that you can barely get a breath in. But once I got past the 'Oh my God, what have I gotten myself into' phase, it was so much fun to sing again.

For me, getting comfortable with being famous was hard - that whole side of it, the loss of anonymity, the loss of privacy. Giving up that part of your life and not having control of it.

Acting's an odd profession for a young person; it's so extreme. You work, and the conditions are tough and the process is so immersive, and then it stops, and then there's nothing. So you have to find ways of making you feel productive when you're not actually producing anything. For a young person, that's really challenging.

[On her role as "Velma Von Tussle" in Hairspray (2007)] It's a lot of fun to play mean and sinister - but you certainly put yourself at risk for scenery chewing. And, every once in a while, Adam [Shankman, the director] would come over to me after a take and say, 'Hey, Michelle - is there a chair leg in your teeth?

(From Movieline magazine April 2002) People like Susan Sarandon and Meryl Streep have paved the way and our window of opportunity expands incrementally year by year. Obviously, the kind of roles I'm offered are different than before, but I feel like the roles have only gotten more interesting. I want to grow up to be Judi Dench or Ellen Burstyn. The older we get, the less we work, but look at the work just those two women are doing. It gets deeper.

It's my profound fear of embarrassment that's kept me going. That's the key to my success

It seems that my leading men just keep getting younger the older I get. (from the Berlin Film Festival Promoting Cheri)

If you think hitting 40 is liberating, wait till you hit 50 - and I was surprised at how liberating it was.

Interview with Movieline April 2002: (On being asked who do you find ravishing?) I find Cate Blanchett just so beautiful, so chameleon-like so good in such different things. Brad Pitt is great looking. He's pretty cute I'd like to work with him, too. There are people i love on screen that I would love to work with. I adore Goerge Clooney and i'd love to work with him again. I'd love to work with Ralph Fiennes. I'd love to work with Sean Penn again. I also find my husband very, very attractive.

(On having to turn down the part of Evita that eventually went to Madonna): It was a very hard decision. I worked my ass off for that part. I was 6 months pregnant, doing Dangerous Minds, taking voice lessons, and making demos on the weekend. Then it got too expensive to keep the production in Los Angeles.

I look over and I've cut Al Pacino. This is the guy who already hates me. So, well, there goes that, I guess! But I actually think it's when he began to like me. And we've been good friends ever since. I got the job. (July 2007 Inside the Actors studio)

(On George Clooney while on The Jonathan Ross show BBC 1 August 2007) He's just a great guy, great with kids. I bet him he would get married and he keeps inflating the bet - from 100 dollars to 100,000 dollars. I still think he will, he's a handsome devil.

If you think hitting 40 is liberating, wait until you hit 50 - and I was surprised at how liberating it was. The anticipation of something is always much worse than the reality.
