Jennifer Aniston has become synonymous with the name Rachel Green since 1994. The actress made such an impression with her performance in Friends, fans did not forget her character even after decades. Or one can say the world cannot imagine anyone else playing this role. The actress not only portrayed it ahead of the live audience but owned it like no one probably could. The suburban princess turned barista turned fashion executive will always be one of the most memorable characters of television history.

But long before blowing the minds of her fans on the sitcom, she was already an artistic star. How? Well, she recognized her skills at an age when kids do not know the meaning of art.

Jennifer Aniston showed the first glimpse of her talents at 11

People who have followed Jennifer Aniston through the years might know everything about her achievements. However, most missed the adventurous childhood she had, which paved her path for an astounding career. At age 11, she attended the drama club of the Rudolf Steiner School. This educational system focuses on developing the intellectual, artistic, and practical skills of children. Entering this unique classroom, the American actress got to know about her passion for acting.

This is the same place that ignited her interest in art too, and she made a painting which was displayed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. To put it simply, this school had a huge hand in giving the entertainment industry an actress, who would go on to produce a show that closely imitates real life. After experiencing these amazing things, the Emmy winner became adamant that she would follow this path.

So she later went to the School of Performing Arts in New York City, aka the “Fame” school. Besides this, what inspired her most was watching her father doing these amazing things.

Aniston’s father was a soap opera artist

Back in 2020, Jennifer Aniston appeared on an episode of Smartless and revealed how she had a whirlwind time in Greece because of her dad, who always believed in trying new things. But soon their family shifted back to NYC to follow his dream and got a job on the soap opera, Love of Life. This was the time it all started for the Murder Mystery star and she got mesmerized by the world her dad was a part of.

She recalled how her father used to host parties at their home during his time on the show. Although she was not allowed, the actress used to sneak out of her bed to hear their conversations. All these little experiences turned into a strong passion when she grew up and the rest is the history fans are well aware of.
