Biography
Teri Lynn Hatcher was born on December 8th, 1964
in Sunnyvale, California as the only child of a physicist father and a
computer programmer mother.
Born and raised in the San Francisco area, Ms. Hatcher began
studying acting at the American Conservatory Theatre while
pursuing an undergraduate degree in mathematics and engineering.
Although she was planning to transfer to California Polytechnic
Institute, she attended an open casting call -- as a favor to a
friend who needed moral support -- for the Aaron Spelling production
"The Love Boat", got a part in it, and ended up in Hollywood.
During the 1985/86 season she played Amy, one of "The Mermaids",
the Pacific Princess' very own dancing & singing group. She was even
featured in an actual plot-line at one time! :-)
After this screen debut Teri had several small guest roles in various
TV series before making her motion-picture debut as a sexy, self-absorbed
starlet in Christopher Guest's Hollywood satire, "The Big Picture,"
earning immediate acclaim as an accomplished and commanding performer
with a gift for comedy.
She followed that success with a dramatic role as the sister of
Sylvester Stallone's character in the film, "Tango and Cash,"
then
returned to comedy with Sally Field and Kevin Kline in "Soapdish,"
and appeared opposite Dolly Parton and James Woods in "Straight Talk."
She recently co-starred with Alec Baldwin, Eric Roberts, Mary Stuart
Masterson and Kelly Lynch in the thriller, "Heaven's Prisoners."
Teri's latest project was the James Bond movie "Tomorrow Never Dies"
in which she played Paris Carver, the wife of 007's adversary, a role
played by Jonathan Pryce
She starred on Norman Lear's semiautobiographical television series,
"Sunday Dinner," and has guest starred on such series as "Seinfeld,"
"Murphy Brown" and "L.A.Law.". An incourigible animal
lover, Ms. Hatcher
finds it impossible to resist adopting strays of all sorts. Her current
menagerie includes two dogs, three cats, a cockatiel and a tortoise. Other
favorite activities include skiing, golf, hiking and gardening.
After a failed marriage in 1988? to Mark Leithold that lasted only 10
months, Ms. Hatcher married actor Jon Tenney in May, 1994 with whom she
currently resides somewhere north of Los Angeles.
Teri and Jon's first child, daughter Rose Emerson, was born on November
10, 1997
