Alba was born in Pomona, California, on April 28, 1981.
Jessica’s family moved to Biloxi, Mississippi while
Jessica was very young. Her father, who was in the Air
Force, moved the family to Del Rio, Texas, later.
Eventually, the family settled in southern |
 |
| California when
Jessica was nine. Jessica had always wanted to be an
actress from the age of five. She took her first
acting class
at the age of 12. Shortly later, Jessica was signed by an
agency. |
|
 |
In 1993, Jessica made
her movie debut in Camp Nowhere. She was originally hired for a
short time but got lucky when one of the main actresses dropped
out. Jessica, who had the same color hair as the actress, eagerly
took over the spot. After her first movie, Jessica appeared in two
commercials for Nintendo and |
| J.C. Penny and a few independent
films. In 1994, she landed a reoccurring role in "The Secret
World of Alex Mac." She played a snob who made life hard for
the main character with magical powers. Also in 1994, she landed
the role of Maya for a pilot of "Flipper." Jessica spent
1995 filming the first season of "Flipper" in Australia.
Jessica is a PADI-certified diver and the "Flipper" show
allowed her to have fun and play with the dolphins. The success of
the first season of "Flipper" lead to the filming of the
second season, which Jessica also starred in. Jessica involvement
in "Flipper" lasted from 1995-1997. Since
"Flipper" Jessica has appeared in a number of television
shows and movies. |
|
| In 1996, Jessica
appeared in Venus Rising as Young Eve. Also in 1996, she appeared
in an episode of "Chicago Hope", as Maria. In 1997,
Jessica appeared on the "Dini Petty Show", a Canadian
talk show, and talked about her role in Flipper and her general
acting career. She began working on P.U.N.K.S., featuring Randy |

|
Quaid, in 1998. P.U.N.K.S. was just recently released on video in
early January, 1999.
In 1998, Jessica appeared in several TV
shows for an episode or two. In early 1998, she appeared in
"Brooklyn South", as Melissa. A few months later, she
appeared in two episodes of "Beverly Hills 90210", as
Leanne. And finally, she appeared in an episode of "Love
Boat: The Next Wave." |
|
| In 1999 she appeared
a huge number of magazines. She had a small role in Never
Been Kissed which was released in the Spring. A month later
she could be found with a larger role in Idle Hands. |
|

|
Her two
performances in those movies started a buzz in the entertainment
industry. Many more magazines would come knocking on her
door. Shortly after the release of those two movies, she
landed the starring role in Paranoia. She finished filming
Paranoia in June. The movie is in post-production now.
Shortly later she started working on what
will |
| potentially be her
biggest work ever. She auditioned
for the leading role in Dark Angel. She caught the eye of
James Cameron and will now star in the post anticipated TV show of
2000. |
