Jessica Alba: Father
built 607 days ago
Jessica was born in California, but lived in Mississippi and Texas for much of her early life. Her father, Mark Alba, who was in the Air Force, married a woman who could have racked up a lot of frequent flier miles visiting her relatives all over the world. Cathy Jensen, Jessica’s mother, was of Danish, French-Canadian, English and Italian descent. Jessica’s mother, a lifeguard, taught her daughter to swim before she learned to walk. As a little girl, Jessica spent a lot of time sick in bed watching sports. Her interest in acting began at age five, and her health improved dramatically when the family moved back to California.
