American actress
Born: January 14, 1943

Holland Taylor was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the third-born (and last) daughter of her mother, Virginia Davis, a painter, and the only child of her father, C. Tracy Taylor, an attorney. She spent her teen years in nearby Allentown, PA, where Holland got the nickname “Penny Taylor” because of her coppery hair color. Holland attended Quaker schools and then majored in drama at Bennington College. At the age of 22, Holland moved to New York with the desire to become a “great big Broadway star.” After fifteen years of “disappointments and near misses” in New York and California, Holland was cast as Ruth Dunbar in the 1980 sitcom Bosom Buddies with Tom Hanks. It was Holland’s “breakout” role, and it led to many other TV and film offers, including the movie Romancing the Stone (1984), in which Holland played Kathleen Turner’s book publisher and friend. Holland had hesitated to accept the role, but her acting coach and mentor, Stella Adler, encouraged her not to be so “stage-minded.” In 1992, Holland was still living in Greenwich Village, New York, and traveling back and forth between a rented apartment in Hollywood and New York in order to work on both coasts. Holland has said her first love was the theater, but the work for her in TV and film was better. However, by 1992, Holland said she was dealing with traveling back and forth “less and less well.” Over the next few years, Holland moved to California full-time. In the last couple of years, she gave up her apartment in West Hollywood for her own home in the Hollywood Hills. Holland won an Emmy in 1999 for her work in “The Practice” (1997).

American actress
Born: January 11, 1972

Amanda Peet was born and raised in New York City. She is the daughter of Penny (Levy), a social worker, and Charles Peet, a lawyer, and has an older sister. Her father was of mostly English and German ancestry, and her mother was from a Jewish family (from Germany, Russia, and Hungary). Peet’s great-grandfathers were politician Samuel Levy and showbiz impresario S.L. Rothafel.

Peet made an unconventional stage debut at the age of three when she jumped onto the stage during a play. Yet, despite this early start, she later studied acting more as a hobby than anything else. She studied history at Columbia University, where a drama professor convinced her to audition for acting teacher Uta Hagen, with whom she later went on to study for a four-year period. During this time, she participated in the off-Broadway revival of Clifford Odets’s “Awake and Sing.” She supported herself during the audition phase of her career by working as a waitress and with the residual checks she received from a Skittles candy commercial. Perseverance and hard work paid off, and, in 1995, she was cast in a guest-starring role on the hit series Law & Order (1990).

Amanda Peet’s 5 most popular quotes

• If I had to give up cheese or chocolate, I’d give up chocolate in a heartbeat.
• The thing I noticed about Jack was when we did a reading of the script, just to warm up.
• I love getting dressed up and having someone do my make-up and feeling pretty.
• I think once I was in high school – I had boyfriends and stuff like that, but I think when I was younger, I went through a period where I looked like a boy, and people thought I was a boy.
• Someone with a figure like Jennifer Aniston has a trainer, a cook spinning out some version of the latest diet, and probably a stop at the tanning salon.
