Mini biography:
Michelle Pfeiffer was born in Santa Ana, CA to Dick and Donna
Pfeiffer. She has an older brother and two younger sisters -
Dedee, an actress currently playing Cybill Shepard's eldest
daughter on "Cybill" and Lori, who dabbled in acting and modeling
but decided against making it her life's 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. But it was while working as a supermarket checker at
Vons, a large Southern California grocery chain, that she
realized her true calling. She was married to actor/director
Peter Horton ("Gary" of "Thirtysomething") in 1981. They were
later divorced, and she then had a three year relationship with
actor Fisher Stevens. When that didn't work out, Pfeiffer decided
she didn't want to wait any longer before having her own family,
and in March of 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 and "Chicago Hope"). On August 5, 1994 their son, John
Henry was born.
