Hometown: Bellingham, Washington Birthday: July 30, 1974
How You Know Her: Hilary's first major role was as a major ass-kicker in 1994's The Next Karate Kid (good lookin' out, Pat Morita), and we've been lucky enough to see her branch out and show off some major dramatic chops ever since! Winning two Best Actress Academy Awards for her performances in Boys Don't Cry (1999) and Million Dollar Baby (2004), she's come a long way from her guest spot on the Harry and the Hendersons TV series. You can bet she flies high in Amelia (out October 23), where her take on Amelia Earhart will make jodhpurs look sexier than ever!
Park and Ride: "I don't know what I did in this life to deserve all of this. I'm just a girl from a trailer park who had a dream." – After receiving her first Academy Award (Via hilaryswankfan.com)
