The Beginning

Coming from a strong linrage, Uma Thurman did not have to wait for long to get noticed in the Big Apple as she began to seek for auditions. With the backing of her mother who kept on introducing her to famous modelling agencies, she was quickly signed by Click and found herself in Glamour and Vogue magazines. Being a part of such prestigious magazines would have been a lifetime achievemtn for any lesser teenager. But Uma was not much satisfied with these achievements. It was an acting career that Uma wanted and at the tender age of 16 in 1998, she landed her first roles and found herself on the path to stardom. First to come were Johnny Be Good and Kiss Daddy Goodnight, in which Uma very successfully held her own opposite the likes of Robert Downey Jr. and Steve Buscemi.
