Olivia Wilde (born Olivia Jane Cockburn;  /ˈkoʊbərn/; March 10, 1984)^[1] is an actress and fashion model. Born in the United States, she has both Irish and American citizenship. Wilde began acting in the early 2000s, and has since appeared in a number of television and film productions, including her roles in the dramas The O.C., The Black Donnellys, and House M.D.,^[1] and had starring roles in films Tron: Legacy, Cowboys & Aliens, and In Time.

Early life, family, and education[link]

Wilde was born in New York City. Her mother, Leslie Cockburn (née Redlich), is an American-born 60 Minutes producer and journalist. Her father, Andrew Myles Cockburn, a journalist, was born in London, England, to British parents, and raised in Ireland; her uncles Alexander Cockburn and Patrick Cockburn are also journalists. Her older sister, Chloe Cockburn, is a civil rights attorney in New York; her aunt, Sarah Caudwell, was a writer, and her paternal grandfather, Claud Cockburn, was a novelist and journalist.

Her father's upper-class British ancestors lived in several countries during the height of colonialism and the British Empire, including Peking, China (where her paternal grandfather was born), Calcutta and Bombay, India, Cairo, Egypt, and Tasmania, Australia (one of her paternal great-great-grandfathers, Henry Arthur Blake, was Governor of Hong Kong).^[2] Wilde's father's ancestors include abolitionist and Anglican minister James Ramsay, politician George Arbuthnot, lawyer, judge, and literary figure Henry Cockburn, Lord Cockburn, Lord Provost of Edinburgh Sir William Arbuthnot, 1st Baronet, and Sir Thomas Osborne, 9th Baronet.^[2][3] Wilde's ancestry consists of English, Scottish, Irish, and German.

Wilde has said that as a result of her parents' occupations, she has a "strong journalistic streak", being "really critical and analytical".^[1] Both her parents were prominent in the Washington social scene, hosting dinner parties. Her mother once recounted a story of a four-year-old^[4] Wilde eavesdropping one night on a conversation between diplomat Richard Holbrooke and singer Mick Jagger, until Jagger noticed her and shooed her to bed. She has wanted to become an actress since the age of two.^[1] For a short time, Wilde's family had a house in Guilford, Vermont. She attended Georgetown Day School in Washington, D.C., as well as Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts, graduating in 2002. She also studied acting in Dublin.^[1]

Career[link]

Wilde has appeared in the films The Girl Next Door, Alpha Dog, Conversations with Other Women and Turistas. She became known for her role on The O.C. as Alex Kelly, although she originally auditioned for the role of Marissa Cooper. She has also appeared in the Dashboard Confessional music video for "Stolen", and the French Kicks music video for "So Far We Are". She was strongly^{[citation needed]} considered to play Bond girl Vesper Lynd in the 21st James Bond film, Casino Royale, but Eva Green eventually won the role. In 2008, Wilde was honored alongside Jesse Eisenberg with the Vail Film Festival Rising Star Award.^[5]

In 2009, Wilde was ranked No.1 on Maxim magazine's Hot 100.^[6] It was an honor which was included as an inside joke during House M.D. season 6: episode 4 called "The Tyrant", where Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie), upon hearing about Dr. Eric Foreman's (Omar Epps) recent firing of Dr. Remy "Thirteen" Hadley (Wilde), sarcastically teased, "My condolences. Although, it's not like she's the hottest woman in the world."^[7] She was also ranked No.95 on the FHM 100 Sexiest Women of 2006.^[8] She was one of the key models in Abercrombie & Fitch's "Rising Stars" campaign in the summer of 2004.

Wilde told Star magazine how she sometimes took cues from her character even when she was not working, saying, "I'm now convinced that I'm a doctor. I mean, if someone says they have a pain, I'm like, 'Well, that's your spleen.'"^[9][10]

The New York Observer has described Wilde as having a "throaty voice" and the "wide, teal-eyed charisma of Hollywood in the days of yore".^[1] She has cited Meryl Streep, Sigourney Weaver, Frances McDormand, Catherine Keener and Robin Wright Penn as acting inspirations.^[1]

She won the 2006 US Comedy Arts Festival Film Discovery Jury Award for Best Actress for Bickford Shmeckler's Cool Ideas (2006), and in 2008 at the Teen Choice Awards, she was nominated for the Teen Choice Award for Choice TV Breakout Star Female for House M.D., and won the Rising Star Award at the Vail Film Festival.
