1. Laura Elizabeth Dern was born on Feb. 10, 1967, in Santa Monica, Calif., a SoCal gal through and through.

2. Her parents are Oscar-nominated actors Bruce Dern and Diane Ladd. They divorced in 1969 but reunite often to support their daughter, such as when they high-fived in a tribute video for Dern when she was presented with a career achievement award at the 2020 Palm Springs International Film Festival.

3. Before Laura was born, Dern and Ladd had another daughter who drowned when she was 18 months old. Doctors told Ladd she probably wouldn't be able to have another baby.
