Biography

Hewitt's birth date is February 21, 1979, and he was born in Waco, Texas. Her speech-language-pathologist mother Patricia Mae and her medical-technician father Herbert Daniel Hewitt raised her. In the middle of Texas, in a small town called Nolanville, she grew up. Hewitt's middle name, Love, comes from a promise her mother made to a college friend (also named "Love") that if she ever had a daughter, Hewitt would be named after her. Hewitt's older brother, Todd Hewitt, was named after their father. Jennifer was named after the crush her father had at the time of her birth In the wake of their parents' split, Hewitt and Todd were raised by their mom.

Hewitt's earliest experiences in the entertainment business began when she was a young girl and she developed a passion for music. She performed "The Greatest Love of All" at a livestock show when she was just three years old. The following year, she sang "Help Me Make it Through the Night" at a restaurant's dance hall, and the crowd loved it. Tap and ballet were already second nature to her by the time she was five. It took her another four years, but by then she had made it onto the Texas Show Team. After being named "Texas Our Little Miss Talent Winner" by a panel of judges, Hewitt and her mother relocated to Los Angeles, California the following year at the urging of talent scouts so that she could pursue a career in acting and singing. Lincoln High School was where she met Jonathan Neville, the future talent scout who suggested Hewitt for the part of Amy in Party of Five.

Hewitt got her start in the entertainment industry when she was a kid, when she appeared in commercials and on Kids Incorporated on the Disney Channel. She had a long list of credits under her belt before she became a household name among teenagers thanks to her performances in FOX's Party of Five (in which she played Sarah Reeves Merrin) and the horror film I Know What You Did Last Summer. as well as the 1998 follow-up (in both of which she played the role of Julie James).

Meldac paid for the sessions that yielded her first studio album, Love Songs, when she was just a tween. As a result of the album's limited Japanese release, Hewitt gained widespread popularity in that country. Hewitt is a popular pop singer who is currently signed to Atlantic Records and Jive Records. How Do I Deal, released in 1999, was her most successful single on the Billboard Hot 100, reaching No. 59 Hewitt has also written songs for movie trailers and soundtracks.

Writer Scott Lobdell scripted a five-issue anthology titled Jennifer Love Hewitt's Music Box, which was based on Hewitt's ideas Trade paperback collections of the series were released by IDW Publishing. She chronicled her adventures in love and dating in a book titled The Day I Shot Cupid.
