biography

The dancer-turned-actress Jennifer Morrison made her film debut in the movie "Intersection." She has also starred in "Urban legends Final Cut" and "Mr. and Mrs. Smith," but she currently has a role on the Fox drama "House." The actress was born August 19, 1979, in Chicago and has dated co-star Jesses Spencer. American actress Jennifer Morrison elevated the "girl next door" look to a new plateau when she commenced dramatic roles in the early 2000s, with her blue-eyed, cherubic countenance and lithe physical grace -- and turned many a head in the process. Like most ingenues, however, the Illinois-bred Morrison had difficulty finding material of substance, and thus initially endured a series of roles in A-listers of highly variable quality. These included Michael Davis' teen-oriented romantic-comedy 100 Women (2002), Casey La Scala's teen comedy Grind (2003), and -- as the nadir to end all nadirs -- the Ben Affleck holiday gross-out fest Surviving Christmas (2004), in which she played Affleck's snotty girlfriend. After a series of like cinematic disappointments, Morrison finally earned her critical laurels in an alternate venue, as Dr. Alison Cameron on the popular medical drama House (2004) -- a part she carried for multiple seasons.
