Jennifer Morrison


Jennifer Morrison, born Jennifer Marie Morrison, on April 12 1979, is an American actress. She grew up with two teachers for parents and even went to school where they worked in Arlington Heights, Illinois. Her studies took her to Loyola University in Chicago, where she received her B.A in 3 years. Following her degree in 2000 she studied at the Steppenwolf Theater Company.

Even though, she’d done multiple large movies and commercials while she was in school, it wasn’t until she landed a role on ’House M.D’ in 2004 that she really found the spot light. While doing ‘House M.D’ she kept herself busy with lots of movies, including ‘Big Stan’ and ‘Star Trek’, as well as recurring on ‘How I Met Your Mother’ and leading on ‘Once Upon a Time’ where you’ll find her now.

Jennifer Morrison Quotes
Jennifer Morrison: It's like my entire life came from one job. I met my husband on the show. I have a beautiful house. Every day I feel incredibly blessed.

Jennifer Morrison: I really do see the good in people, and I don't want to change that. That's really how I view things, so sometimes I'll look past a lot of huge red flags because I see something else in someone. Then of course it always comes back to haunt me in the long run.

Jennifer Morrison: I've been single for a little while partly because I've been working so much and partly because I don't want to settle. A lot of people run around and are real crazy in Hollywood, but I want to wait for it to be the right thing.
