Sharon Vonne Stone biography and pictures

Sharon Vonne Stone

Born on March the 10th, 1958 and is an American actress, producer, and former fashion model. She came to international attention for her performance in the 1992 blockbuster film Basic Instinct. Sharon is said to be 5 ' 8.5 " ( 174 cms ).

Stone was born in Meadville, Pennsylvania, between Pittsburgh and Erie, Pennsylvania. The second of four children, she is the daughter of Joe and Dorothy Stone, blue collar workers with, ancestral roots in Galway, Ireland.
After joining the Ford Modeling Agency, Stone spent a few years modeling, and appeared in TV commercials. She was cast for a brief but memorable role in Allen's Stardust Memories (1980), and then had a speaking part a year later in the horror movie Deadly Blessing (1981), which was a big box office success. When French director Claude Lelouch saw Stone in Stardust Memories he was so impressed that he cast her in Les Uns et Les Autres (1982), starring James Caan. She was only on screen for two minutes, and did not appear in the credits.

Her next role was in Irreconcilable Differences (1984), starring Ryan O'Neal, Shelley Long, and young Drew Barrymore.

Throughout the rest of the 80s she appeared in many movies of poor quality, such as King Solomon's Mines (1985), and Allan Quatermain and the Lost City of Gold (1987). She also played the part of wife of Steven Seagal's character in Above the Law (1988). Her appearance in Total Recall (1990) with Arnold Schwarzenegger gave her career a much needed jolt.
The role that made her a star was Catherine Tramell, a mind game playing serial killer in Basic Instinct (1992).

In 1995, Empire magazine chose her as one of the 100 sexiest stars in film history. In 1996, she received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress for her role as Ginger in Martin Scorsese's Casino (1995).
