When you think of great American actresses, I hope you thing of the two time academy award nominated and Golden Globe winning actress Winona Ryder. This was a girl that was born on October 29, 1971 and would go on to get her star on the Hollywood walk of fame. Winona Ryder has been in a lot of movies and is well known both on and off stage. She has had her fair share of problems that does not mean that she does not make great films; in fact, some of her's will always be remembered as classics (and that is a great thing for her).

When you are named after the town you were born in but you grew up on the other side of the country in a hippie commune and your godfather is Timothy Leary you are destined to have a unique outlook on life. To say Winona Ryder's outlook on life is unique is like saying a fire truck is red. When you understand her background you begin to understand why she takes the roles she does and why she is who she is.
