Happy Birthday Halle Berry!

Happy Birthday Halle Berry!  She began her career in the drama series Living Dolls as Emily Franklin.  Then, she was Vivian in Spike Lee’s drama Jungle Fever (1991).  Berry followed it with the comedy Boomerang (1992).  One of the interesting early role for Halle Berry for me was as the airline attendent Jean in the action movie Executive Decision (1996).  In 1999, she won the Emmy Award for her lead in the television movie, Introducing Dorothy Dandridge. An early genre part for Halle Berry was as Storm in X-Men (2000).  She won the Best Actress Academy Award for the drama Monster’s Ball (2001). Berry was a Bond Girl and spy, Jinx Johnson, in Die Another Day (2002).  She returned as Storm in X2: X-Men United (2003).
