| Winona Ryder Biography, a little bit about Winona Ryder Winona Ryder was born in Olmstead County near Winona, Minnesota to Cindy Istas and Michael Horowitz, the son of Jewish immigrants from Russia and Romania. Her father's family was originally named 'Tomchin', however Ryder has stated that they were wrongly assigned the name of the family that they were travelling with when they arrived at Ellis Island, in 1906. Ryder's parents named her 'Winona' after the town in Minnesota where she was born. She has a younger brother Yuri (named after Yuri Gagarin), an older half-brother Jubal and an older half-sister Sunyata. Notable family friends included her godfather Timothy Leary and beat poet Allen Ginsberg. When she was seven years old she and her family resided at a commune in Elk, California, where they lived with seven other families on a 300-acre (1.2 kmē) plot of land. As the area had no electricity, Ryder took to reading. Her mother did, however, show her some films on a screen in the barn, which perhaps led her to develop an interest in what would later make up her career. At age 10 the family moved again to Petaluma, California. She was harassed her first week of junior high school there when a group of bullies mistook her for an effeminate, scrawny boy. This led her to be schooled at home that year, but she also spent time attending the American Conservatory Theater in nearby San Francisco, where she started taking acting lessons. Read More... |
