Eva Longoria Biography
In the past, “the ugly duckling” Eva Jacqueline Longoria probably had never imagined that she would transform to a beautiful swan, becoming one of the hottest promising actresses in the United States. Being the youngest in Longoria family, she is different from her three other sisters for her dark complexion as well as her darker eyes and hair. Nevertheless, she passed her childhood happily, growing up on her parents’ ranch in Corpus Christi, Texas, which also was her place of birth. Born on March 15, 1975, she made her way to successfully earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology at Texas A&M University in Kingsville.
Her life slightly changed when she became Miss Corpus Christi USA in 1998, which endorsed her determination to pursue a career in acting. When Eva came to L.A., she was noticed and signed by a theatrical agent who got her an audition in a comedic play “What the Rabbi Saw” in which she was accepted. Afterwards, she played small roles in some television series, namely “The Bold an the Beautiful”; “General Hospital”; and “Beverly Hills 90210.” This American-Mexican actress made a great leap in her career by joining the cast of “The Young and the Restless” in 2001. Her acting as Isabella Brana Williams in the film led her to win an ALMA award for Outstanding Actress in a Daytime Drama.
