Born in Pomona, California, on April 28, 1981, Alba,
whose father was in the Air Force, moved with her family to
Biloxi, Mississippi, when she was an infant, but she
eventually moved back to California nine years later. It was
back in California that she embarked on an acting career;
having been in love with the idea of acting since she was
five, Alba took her first acting class at the age of 12, and
nine months later, she landed her first agent.
She got her start on television, making appearances on
shows like Beverly Hills 90210, and she made her film debut
in the 1994 kids comedy Camp Nowhere. Originally cast in a
minor role in the film, she got her first big break when the
principal actress dropped out and she was asked to take
over. Following her debut, Alba did a great deal of work on
television.

She got her first substantial film role as the object of
the protagonist's disastrous affection in the teen horror
comedy Idle Hands in 1999; that same year, she played one of
the nasty popular girls who terrorize Drew Barrymore in the
romantic comedy Never Been Kissed.
Bursting onto the national scene in James Cameron's made
for TV action drama "Dark Angel," Jessica Alba closed out
the century as one of Hollywood's more promising new
talents |
