Born in Detroit, Michigan Sherilyn Fenn comes from a family of musicians. Her mother is keyboard player Arlene Quatro, her aunt is Suzi Quatro, and her grandfather Art Quatro was a jazz musician. The family settled in Los Angeles when she was 17 and rather than start at a new school she decided to enroll at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute and pursue an acting career. In 1984 she began by landing roles in four movies, The Wild Life, Silence of the Heart, Out of Control and Just one of the Guys.
