Elizabeth Berkeley grew up in a religious Jewish family. Fortunately, parents encouraged the daughter’s passion for dancing. At 11, Little Lizzi shone on the stage of Broadway in the production of Swan Lake. However, the girl dreamed of a career in Hollywood.

At the age of 15, Elizabeth came to the next listening. She was not approved for the main role, but the producers really liked the girl. Therefore, they created the character specifically for her. So Jesse Spano was born - the young defender of women's rights in the popular teenage series “Rescued by a Call”. Berkeley decorated the shows from 1989 to 1993. I must say that the transition from the role of a star-star was given not easy. And it all started with the erotic drama "Showerles".

This is now Paul Verkhoven's film has a cult status, but at the time of release he had low box office. Berkeley was sharply criticized for her acting. In fact, Elizabeth was accused of failure of the picture. What was supposed to be a springboard to a more serious perception of it, like an actress, ultimately caused public ridicule.

The worst thing is that no one associated with the film even thought to protect the actress. She stayed aloof and turned out of an outcast with which no one wanted to deal with. Elizabeth had to sweat strongly after all the negative reviews in the press. In the end, the actress began to give roles in the cinema. However, her career after the show of Shogels did not take off to the level that she expected.

In an interview, Berkeley said that the role of Nomi Malone influenced not only her career, but also her entire personality. “It changed me. I can’t help but say that I would be a different person if this path had not passed, ”the actress admitted.

A series of failures was interrupted when Berkeley played the key role in the film in Woody Allen's film “Curse of the Jade Scorpio”. Then there was the role of Kelly Vendoort in the series “Sex in another city”, telling about the life of a group of lesbians, their friends and mistresses in the city of Los Angeles.

The experience of expelling from Hollywood inspired the actress to create a helping program for teenage girls. Over time, the Internet "Ask Elizabeth" has turned into a popular reality show. This topic is also devoted to the book of the same name, published by Berkeley in 2011.

This year Elizabeth turned 49 years old! She looks amazing. Perhaps the secret of her beauty lies in the incredible faith in itself and many years of vegetarianism. In 1997, the actress put on a tight -fitting dress made of sheet cabbage to encourage people to refuse meat. Several times she was nominated for the title of "the most sexy vegetarian of the year."
