Sandra Bullock: Born July 26, 1964

Although active in Hollywood since her 20s, Bullock didn't have her star-making breakthrough until 1994's Speed at 30. A string of successes followed throughout the 1990's -- including While You Were Sleeping, Miss Congeniality and Speed 2. Since turning 40 in 2004, though, her career has reached new heights: She runs her own production company, Fortis Films, and her most recent film, the rom-com The Proposal, was a smash hit.
