Tara Reid was born 8 November 1975, Wyckoff, New Jersey, USA began her acting career at the age of four, when, after being notice by a casting agent, she was booked on several commercials, including spots for McDonald's and Jell-O. As a six-year-old, she began appearing regularly on the short-lived daytime game show "Child's Play" (CBS, 1982-83), prior to landing a small role as a preteen vampire in the horror sequel "A Return to Salem's Lot" (1987). Upon graduating from Barnstable, Reid moved to Los Angeles, and before long was picking up small roles on television series like the teen comedy "Saved by the Bell: The New Class" (NBC, 1993-2000), as well as the daytime soap "Days of Our Lives" (NBC, 1965- ). Her big break came with a small, but memorable role in Ethan and Joel Coen's cult classic "The Big Lebowski" (1998). In the film, Reid played the role of the bikini-clad Bunny, trophy wife of the titular Jeffrey Lebowski (David Huddleston), a millionaire whose shady dealings draw dedicated slacker, The Dude (Jeff Bridges), into an increasingly bizarre case of mistaken identity. Although on screen for less than a minute, Reid's sassy, sexy performance brought the young actress the attention she needed to jumpstart her fledgling career. Filmography:
