Biography

Jodi Russell, born Jodi Varble, hails from the quaint Midwestern town of Rockford, Illinois. As the youngest daughter of Jerry, a truck driver and mechanic, and Arlene Varble, a talented cake decorator, Jodi's early life was marked by the beauty of rural landscapes and the thrill of using her imagination. It was during her time as a model, which began at the tender age of 15, that Jodi discovered her passion for being in front of the camera. Her successful modeling career in Chicago and appearances in pageants during the mid-1980s laid the foundation for her future endeavors.

Jodi's acting career kicked off in 1991 with a feature film titled "Lethal Justice," followed by appearances on television shows such as "Silk Stalkings" (1991) and "Conan the Adventurer" (1997). As the 21st century dawned, Jodi continued to make her mark on the small screen, with credits on "Cover Me: Based on the True Life of an FBI Family" (2000),"Touched by an Angel" (1994),and "Everwood" (2002).

From the mid-2000s onward, Jodi's career shifted to include a range of feature films, including the romantic comedy "Blind Dating" (2006),starring Chris Pine and Jane Seymour, and the drama "Dark Matter" (2007),featuring Meryl Streep. Her breakthrough role came in 2009 with the romance drama "Reflections in the Mud," where she played the lead. Jodi then went on to complete two consecutive film projects in 2011, starting with the old-western drama "Redemption: For Robbing the Dead" and the crime drama "3 of a Kind" (2012),for which she won her first "best actress" award at the Houston Film Festival.
