Sandra Bullock was born on 26 July 1964 in Arlington, Virginia. When she
was a little kid she lived in Salzburg and Nuremberg with her aunt and
grandmother. When she was 10 Sandra returned to Arlington and enrolled in
the local Washington-Lee High School. After graduation she attended the
East Carolina University at Greenvillе, where she studied dramatic art.
Having graduated Sandra left Greenvillе and moved to New York. Her first

TV serial Starting From Scratch. In 1989 Sandra took part in the films The
Preppie Murder and Who Shot Patakango?. In 1990 the serial Working Girl

met her grand passion Tate Donovan when shooting the movie Love Potion #9.
Sandra followed him to Los Angeles where they lived together for three
years. In 1993 Sandra took part in the movie The Vanishing. She became a
much sought for actress. Peter Bogdanovich gave her a role in The Thing
Called Love. Sandra also starred in Wrestling Ernest Hemingway, Fire On The
Amazon, Speed, and Demolition Man, in which she partnered with Sylvester
Stallone. Joel Schumacher gave her a role in Batman Forever but she had
already signed a contract to star in While You Were Sleeping. Around that
time she broke up with Tate Donovan, something which made her suffer but
which didn’t prevent her from displaying a sense of humor in that movie.
