She
is the youngest of four children. Cox was close
to her father, a building contractor, and had a
typical mother-daughter relationship with her mom.
When Cox was 10, her parents divorced after 19 years
of marriage. Well, it seems like many successful
celebrities and people have success in adulthood
if their childhood was messed up. Cox stayed with
her mother, brother and two sisters, but blamed
her mother for the divorce. She thought her dad
was the most fun person in the world and wished
secretly that things were back to the way they were
before her parents split. In 1982, Cox graduated
from high school and then began to study architecture
at Mt. Vernon college in Washington. Near the end
of her first and last year of college, Cox met Ian
Copeland, her stepfather's nephew. They worked together
for a New York City music agent.
It wasn't
until 1984 that Cox gained mational attention as
the girl Bruce Springsteen pulled on stage to dance
with at end of his Dancing in the Dark video. The
job paid $350, but the exposure was enough to springboard
Cox to other work in the industry. In 1985, Cox
was in the NBC series Misfits of Science, which
was dropped in four months. That same year, Cox
was cast as Lauren, Michael J. Fox's girlfriend
on Family Ties. The end of Family Ties brought Cox
to a standstill in her career. She did several motion
pictures after, but it wasn't until 1994 when she
got her next big break. Cox was cast as Jim Carrey's
boss in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. Soon after,
Cox won the part of Monica Geller on Friends. |
