Michelle Pfeiffer is an American actress. She was born in Santa Ana, California, to a heating and air-conditioning contractor and a homemaker.

She shot to stardom a year later with a plum role in Brian DePalma's Scarface.

MICHELLE PFEIFFER MIRAMAX FILMS 10.20.09  Whoever doesn't like Michelle Pfeiffer, please leave the room now. One of our most prized actresses, she's had the presence of mind to grow old gracefully, rather than plumping her face. In Chéri, she's decided to, shocker, play old.
