Calista Flockhart was born on November 11th, 1964 in Freeport, Illinois.
She was named after her grandmother, and in Greek, Calista means 'most beautiful'.
Flockhart's father was a Kraft Food executive and her mother was a school
teacher. Her family moved four times while she was growing up, finally settling
in Medford, New Jersey.
After finishing high school, Flockhart studied at Rutgers University in New
Jersey. To avoid the lack of respect an undeclared major usually receives,
she enrolled in the fine arts program, where she was bit by the acting bug.
