Description:
Jada Pinkett Smith was born to Robson Pinkett Jr. and Adrienne
Banfield in Baltimore, Maryland. Her father was a contractor and her mother
was a nurse. They divorced after only a few months of marriage. She majored
in dance and choreography at the Baltimore School for the Arts, where one of
her classmates was Tupac Shakur. She spent a year at the North Carolina School
of the Arts before dropping out to pursue her career in acting. Her big break
came in 1991 when she was cast in the part of a college frosh on the television
sitcom "A Different World" (1987). She made her feature film debut
two years later in Menace II Society (1993). She did not gain widespread recognition,
however, until her role opposite Eddie Murphy in The Nutty Professor (1996).
In addition to being in front of the camera, she has spent time behind it directing
music videos. She has also created Maja, a line of women's T-shirts and dresses
that are mostly sold through small catalogs. Pinkett-Smith is married to Will
Smith, and they have a son, Jaden Christopher Syre Smith; and a daughter, Willow
Camille Reign Smith.
