Alicia Christian “Jodie” Foster
I've been an admirer of Jodie's since I was at a sleepover at a friends house in the Summer holidays when I was 14 and we watched an old “teen” movie called “Foxes” (which also happens to star another lady I admire, Cherie Currie, former lead vocalist with 'The Runaways').
Her career began at age 3 and has spanned everything from modelling to acting, singing (a little), directing and producing.
She has received two Academy Awards, three British Academy Film Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, and the Cecil B. DeMille Award. For her work as a director, she has been nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award.
During her freshman year at Yale in 1980–1981, Foster was stalked by John W. Hinckley, Jr., who had developed an obsession with her after watching Taxi Driver.
(Hinckley attempted to assassinate Pres. Reagan in March 1981).
I can only imagine what amazing conversations might be enjoyed through the evening.
