Born December 4, 1949 in Los Angeles (USA).
Jeff Bridges made his on-camera debut at the age of 4 months in The Company She Owns. Together with his father, the famous actor Lloyd Bridges and his brother Beau, he starred in television series.
Prior to becoming an actor, Jeff worked for some time in the Coast Guard. He received his acting education at the studios of Herbert Bergdorf and Uta Hagen in New York.
The real - and immediately attracted the attention of the American Film Academy - the debut of the young actor took place in Peter Bogdanovich's film "The Last Picture Show" (1971). During the 70s, the actor was in full view of the public, starring in a number of interesting projects. However, a stormy personal life, which gave food to the "yellow press" and several unsuccessful films spoiled the course of his acting career, and new success came to Jeff Bridges in the mid-80s, after John Carpenter's science fiction tape "Man from the Star" (1984).
Jeff Bridges has established himself not only as a great actor, he is also known as an artist and photographer. His works are exhibited from time to time in renowned galleries. Jeff Bridges also has a musical talent, which he demonstrated back in 1989 with his brother Bo and Michelle Pfeiffer in the film The Famous Baker Brothers. He writes lyrics and composes songs and works with Quincy Jones.
Jeff Bridges has been hailed as "the most underrated great actor of his generation," a stereotype of modern film critics, with the light hand of Janet Maslin, who first named him in her 1992 New York Times review of The American Heart. Known for his relaxed naturalistic acting, Bridges has remained one of the leading actors for decades without being a box office leader. Moreover, Bridges made his career without imitating such modern stars as Al Pacino, Jack Nicholson and Robert De Niro.
