Diane Keaton is an American film actress, director and producer. Keaton
began her career on stage, and made her screen debut in 1970. Her first major
film role was as Kay Adams-Corleone in The Godfather (1972), but the films that
shaped her early career were those with director and co-star Woody Allen
beginning with Play It Again, Sam in 1972. Her next two films with Allen,
Sleeper (1973) and Love and Death (1975), established her as a comic actress.
Her fourth, Annie Hall (1977), won her the Academy Award for Best Actress.
Keaton subsequently expanded her range to avoid becoming typecast as her
Annie Hall persona. She became an accomplished dramatic actress, starting in
Looking for Mr. Goodbar (1977) and and received Academy Award nominations for
Reds (1981) and Marvin's Room (1996). Some of her popular later films include
Father of the Bride (1991), The First Wives Club (1996), and Something's Gotta
Give (2003). Films Keaton has been in have earned a cumulative gross of over
USD$1.1 billion in North America. In addition to acting, she is also a
photographer, real estate developer, and occasional singer.
Born January 5, 1946, her primary personality traits are represented by
the Chinese Zodiac elemental animal sign, the Wood Rooster. This is a kindler
and gentler Rooster, one actually willing to make compromises every now and
then. Her creativity plus her business sense makes her a likely success as an
entrepreneur or consultant---or a performing artist who can actually make money
at it. She’s a sociable Rooster who enjoys being with people as well as being
in the limelight. She can be quite open-minded and has a wide scope of
interests.
