never knew that - she's half Jewish half Filipina. Damn she really left showbiz behind, says in this bio she doesn't even keep up her membership in the Screen Actors Guild.


Biography:
Phoebe Cates's father was the late Joseph Cates, an American producer and director with some Russian Jewish ancestry. Her mother was a Filipina with some Spanish-Chinese heritage. Phoebe's brother Phillip Cates is also an actor and producer and she has two other sisters: Valerie and Alexandra.

A native of New York City, Phoebe majored in dance at the Juilliard School. She started her career as a model and later shifted to acting. Her very first movie was "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" in 1982. The rest is history.

She married fellow actor Kevin Kline in 1989 and they are blessed with two beautiful kids: Greta and Owen. Today Phoebe is a stay-at-home mom and doesn't have plans of making any more films in the foreseeable future. She is no longer signed to any talent agency and is no longer registered at the Actors Guild. Even so, her timeless beauty has not been forgotten and she remains the idol of many fans around the world.
