Diane Lane

Diane Lane (born January 22, 1965) is an American film actress born and raised in New York City. Her parents are Colleen Farrington, a night club singer and Playboy centerfold (Miss October 1957), and Burton Eugene Lane, a Manhattan drama coach who ran an acting workshop with John Cassavetes. Lane's parents split up when she was 13 years old and two years later she declared her independence from her father and ran away to Los Angeles for a week with actor and friend Christopher Atkins.

Lane made her screen debut in George Roy Hill's 1979 film A Little Romance starring opposite Laurence Olivier. Soon after, she was featured on the cover of Time. She became well known for appearing in two films made and released consecutively by Francis Ford Coppola: The Outsiders and Rumble Fish. Lane went on to star in two high profile studio films, Streets of Fire and The Cotton Club, that were commercial and critical failures. She took three years off from acting and then appeared in several independent films during the 1990s. Lane has since appeared in several notable films, including Unfaithful in 2002, which earned her Academy Award, Golden Globes and Screen Actors Guild Award nominations.

Lane dated actors Timothy Hutton, Christopher Atkins, Matt Dillon during the 1980s, and later rock star Jon Bon Jovi. She was married to Christopher Lambert and they had a daughter, Eleanor Jasmine Lambert. The couple were divorced following a prolonged separation in 1994 and she married actor Josh Brolin on August 15, 2004.
