BORN

Liv Tyler was born on july 1st 1977 in New York City, New York.

BIRTH FAMILY

Liv was born Liv Rundgren. Her mother is 70's supermodel Bebe Buell. Todd Rundgren was her father, or so she thought. Liv actually, as we all know, is the daughter of Aerosmith's claim to fame, Steven Tyler. She did not discover this, however, until she went to an Aerosmith concert and noticed how familiar she looked to the lead singer. So, at age ten, Liv discovered that she was not actually Todd Rundgren's child. Up to this point Liv had lived in Portland, Maine. But, luckily for us fans, was about to embark on a modelling career that would relocate her to New York.

CAREER

Liv has a number of passions in life. Among them are her modeling career, and her career as an actress. She is wonderful at both of them, but seems to prefer the actress business.

MODELLING CARRER

Liv began her modelling career at the tender age of fourteen. This occupation caused her to move from her home of nine years (Portland, Maine) to New York City.

Liv has had many successful shoots, and even was scheduled to be on the cover of a major entertainment magazine, but was beat out by Madonna. Liv has also graced the magazines:

Her modelling career was cut short, however, when she discovered her passion for acting.
