Jessica Marie Alba (born April 28, 1981 in Pomona, California, USA) is an American actress.

Raised in a nomadic military family, Jessica grew up a sports fanatic and terrorized her teachers and grandparents alike with her rebellious behavior. Her father's navy career took the Albas to Biloxi, Mississippi, and Del Rio, Texas, before they settled back in California.

Jessica Alba has been acting on screen for over 10 years, dating back to a small role as Gail in the 1994 Family Adventure Comedy feature Camp Nowhere and extending to more recent gigs in her highly popular, but nevertheless cancelled, Fox TV Sci-fi series Dark Angel (2000-2002).

Her father is Mexican; her mother is half French and half Danish.
