BIOGRAPHY SYNOPSIS:
Hollywood-style girl-next-door good looks and talents for singing, dancing,
acting, songwriting, and, lately, scriptwriting and producing, have kept
ambitious Jennifer Love Hewitt working hard in show business since the age of
ten. Her scream teen queen scene popularity began with I Know What You Did
Last Summer (1997), and was cinched with the sequel I Still Know What You Did
Last Summer (1998), but it was as a dancer and singer that she got her
professional career start (previously, the Waco-born youngster had entertained
at livestock shows and toured with the Texas Show Team) in 1989 as Robin in
the Disney Channel series Kids Incorporated. Children's exercise video Dance!
Workout With Barbie (1991) followed, with Hewitt on the floor amongst the
dancer-cisers, and on the soundtrack vocals. A debut CD entitled Love Songs
(released only in Japan) and Hewitt's first movie, Moody Munchie were released
in 1992. That year, as well, she joined the cast of her first TV network
series, Shaky Ground.
1993 brought Hewitt her first
starring role (in Little Miss Millions) and a “rebellious teen” part in her
first feature film, Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit. A couple of TV series
daughter roles in The Byrds of Paradise (1994), and McKenna (1994) followed.
After the release of her second CD Let's Go Bang (in the U.S. by Atlantic) --
a collection that featured the 16-year-old's first co-written song, Free To Be
A Woman -- Hewitt landed the role of the brainy girlfriend, Sarah, in Party of
Five and successfully turned a minor recurring character into a series
regular. Hewitt's third CD, Jennifer Love Hewitt was released in 1996, and her
film career got underway with House Arrest (1996), Trojan War (direct-to-video
- 1997), The Senior Prom (TV documentary - 1997), the huge horror hit I Know
What You Did Last Summer (1997), Telling You (1998), Can't Hardly Wait (1998),
hit sequel I Still Know What You Did Last Summer (1998), Audrey Hepburn (TV
biography - 1999), and The Suburbans (1999). A Party of Five TV series
spin-off, Time of Your Life, debuted in the fall of 1999 with Hewitt as
actor/producer. The upcoming film, Mary Me Jane (a.k.a. Cupid’s Love), was
co-written and produced by Hewitt, (who will play Jane) and no less than five
more films — Resident Evil, Girl In The Curl, Trust Me, Bunny and Breakers —
are in the works for 2000 release dates. Look for much more from this
multi-talented performer. At 21, her career is a decade old, but only
beginning. Jennifer is listed in the World Who's Who in Jazz, Cabaret,
Music and Entertainment.
