Jim Carrey

  • Name: Jim Carrey
  • Date of Birth: January 17, 1962
  • Place of Birth: Newmarket, Ontario, Canada
Mini-bio: Jim Carrey is a comedian and film actor. He is best-known for his manic, slapstick performances in comedy films such as Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls, Dumb & Dumber, The ...( read more)Mask, Liar Liar, and Bruce Almighty. Carrey has also achieved critical success in dramatic roles in films such as The Truman Show, The Majestic, Man on the Moon, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. He is the youngest of four children. He moved to Los Angeles in 1979, and finessed his way into a regular gig at The Comedy Store, where he impressed Rodney Dangerfield so much that the veteran comic signed him as an opening act for an entire season. During this period Carrey met and married waitress Melissa Womer, with whom he had a daughter (Jane). The couple would later go through a very messy divorce.

After working together on "Earth Girls Are Easy", Damon Wayans made a call to his brother, Keenen Ivory Wayans, who was in the process of putting together the sketch comedy show "In Living Color" (1990). Carrey joined the cast and quickly made a name for himself with outrageous acts. Carrey's transformation from TV goofball to marquis headliner happened within the course of a single year. He opened 1994 with a starring turn in Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, and his career has grown from there.
