Uma Karuna Thurman was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on April 29, 1970.  Uma grew up in Amherst, Massachusetts, where her father worked at Amherst College. She left boarding school at just 15, already determined to become an actress. She moved to New York to follow her dream.

A breakthrough role for the tall, blonde actress came in Dangerous Liaisons (1988). More attention came with the NC-17 rated Henry & June (1990), but it was Thurman's role in the Quentin Tarantino classic Pulp Fiction (1994) that earned her an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress. Donning a short black wig to play femme fatale Mia Wallace opposite John Travolta, Thurman earned a place in film history.

After roles in The Truth About Cats & Dogs (1996) and Beautiful Girls (1996), Thurman met her future husband Ethan Hawke on the set of the science fiction movie Gattaca (1997).

Thurman returned to smaller films after playing the villainess Poison Ivy in Batman & Robin (1997) and starred in the drama Tape (2001) opposite Hawke.

A return to the mainstream spotlight came when Thurman reunited with Quentin Tarantino for Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003), a revenge flick the two had dreamed up on the set of Pulp Fiction (1994). She also turned up in the John Woo movie Paycheck (2003) that same year. The renewed attention was not altogether welcome because Thurman was dealing with the break-up of her marriage with Hawke at about this time. Thurman handled the situation with grace, however, and took her surging popularity in stride. She garnered critical acclaim for her work in Kill Bill: Vol. 2 (2004).  Thurman reunited with Pulp Fiction (1994) dance partner John Travolta for the Get Shorty (1995) sequel Be Cool (2005) and landed a role in The Producers (2005) after Nicole Kidman backed out of the project.  She has several roles lined up in upcoming movies for the next few years.

Charlize Theron was born on the 7th August 1975 in Benoni, South Africa.  Her mother is of German descent and her father was of French and Dutch ancestry; Theron is directly descended from early Huguenot settlers, and Boer War figure Daniel Theron was her great-grandfather's brother. Theron's first language is Afrikaans, but she is fluent in English and speaks some Zulu. She grew up on her parents' farm near Johannesburg.

At 16, Theron traveled to Milan, Italy, on a one-year modeling contract, after winning a local competition. She went to New York with Pauline's Model Management. She decided to remain after her contract ended, attending the Joffrey Ballet School, where she trained as a ballet dancer. A knee injury closed this career path when Theron was 19.

Unable to dance, Theron flew to Los Angeles on a one-way ticket her mother bought her. During her early months there, she went to a bank to cash a check her mother had sent her to help with the rent. When the teller refused to cash it, Theron started a shouting match with her. A talent agent in line behind her handed her his business card and subsequently introduced her to some casting agents and also an acting school. After eight months in L.A., she was cast in her first small film.  Her career skyrocketed in the late 1990s with box office successes like The Devil's Advocate (1997) and The Cider House Rules (1999).

Theron starred as a serial killer in Monster (2003). For this role, Theron won an Oscar for Best Actress.  She is the first African to win an Oscar for Best Actress. The Oscar win pushed her to the list of highest-paid actresses in Hollywood; earning $10 million for both her subsequent films, North Country and Æon Flux.

In 2007, Esquire named her the Sexiest Woman Alive. In 2008 she starred with Will Smith in Hancock, a movie that grossed $400 mln and in late 2008 she was asked to be a UN Messenger of Peace by the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon.

Theron resides in Los Angeles with her boyfriend Stuart Townsend, with whom she starred in the 2002 film Trapped and 2005 Æon Flux. Theron became a naturalized citizen of the United States in 2007.
