Some Mini Biography of the actress from IMDB.com
Born in Sherman Oaks, California, Jennifer Aniston spent a year of her childhood living in Greece with her family. Her family then relocated to New York City where her parents, actors John Aniston and Nancy Dow, divorced when she was 9.
Jennifer was raised by her mother and her father landed a role, as "Victor Kiriakis", on the daytime soap "Days of Our Lives" (1965). Jennifer had her first taste of acting at age 11 when she joined the Rudolf Steiner School's drama club.
It was also at the Rudolf Steiner School that she developed her passion for art. She began her professional training as a drama student at New York's School of Performing Arts, aka the "Fame" school. It was a division of Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music and the Arts. In 1987, after graduation, she appeared in such Off-Broadway productions as "For Dear Life" and "Dancing on Checker's Grave".
In 1989, she landed her first television role, as a series regular on "Molloy" (1989). She also appeared in "The Edge" (1992), "Ferris Bueller" (1990), and had a recurring part on "Herman's Head" (1991). By 1993, she was floundering.
Then, in 1994, a pilot called "Friends Like These" came along. Originally asked to audition for the role of "Monica", Aniston refused and auditioned for the role of "Rachel Green", the suburban princess turned coffee peddler. With the success of the series "Friends" (1994), Jennifer has become famous and sought-after as she turns her fame into movie roles during the series hiatus.

Before Jennifer Aniston was an A-list actress, appearing on red carpets alongside her fianceJustin Theroux (not to mention on countless ”Friends” reruns every day), she was a New York City girl trying to make it big in the late 1980s. A slew of small TV roles—including the small-screen version of “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” and “Camp Cucamonga” (whatever that is)—led to her first starring film role, in 1993′s horror-comedy “Leprechaun” when she was 24 years old.

Naturally, the flick was panned across the board—it is about an killer leprechaun locked in a man’s basement, after all—so it didn’t really do its part to out Aniston. However, she landed the star-making role of Rachel Green on “Friends” a year later, which changed her life completely.
