Jeff Goldblum (born October 22, 1952) is an American film actor. The son of the deceased Doctor Harold Goldblum, Jeff was born in Whitaker, Pennsylvania.
Rising to 6'4", Goldblum has a talent for delivering relaxed, naturalistic dialogue with impeccable comic timing. Though not often cast in leading roles (his role in 1986's The Fly a notable exception), Goldblum is often cast in strong supporting roles. His roles in Jurrasic Park, The Big Chill, Into the Night, Independence Day and The Fly are among his most notable performances. He also had a supporting role in the 1984 cult favorite The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension.
Goldblum has been married twice. He was married to Patricia Gaul from 1980 to 1986. He was later married to Geena Davis from November 1, 1987 to October 1990, with whom he starred with in three films. He has also been engaged to Laura Dern with whom he co-starred in Jurrasic Park. He was also reportedly engaged to Catherine Wreford, 23 year-old Canadian dancer.
