She has been active in the film industry since the early 1990s and is renowned for her parts in both indie and big-budget films that focus on the emotional struggles of women.

Where did Julianne Moore go to high school?
Moore attended Justice High School in Falls Church, Virginia, until she was 16 years old, when her family relocated, and she began attending Frankfurt American High School in Frankfurt, West Germany.
She considered herself to be a “nice kid,” intelligent, and she wanted to be a doctor. She had never thought about acting or even going to the theatre, but she loved to read, and it was this interest that inspired her to start acting at the school.
Moore performed in a number of plays, such as Tartuffe and Medea, and after being encouraged to do so by her English instructor, she decided to pursue a career in theatre. Although they agreed with her choice, her parents insisted that she enrol in college to have the extra security of a diploma.
