Personal Life

Jennifer Diane Grant was born in Burbank, California, on 26th February 1966. Both her parents, Cary Grant and Dyan Cannon, were renowned Hollywood actors. They divorced when she was only two years of age. She did her schooling from Brentwood School in Los Angeles and later finished her graduation from Stanford University in 1987.

Though Jennifer had a close relationship with her father, he did not want her to become an actress.

After her father’s death, she inherited half of his estate, which was worth millions of dollars. The other half went to her stepmother Barbara Harris Grant.

She married Randy Zisk in 1993. However, they divorced in 1996. She gave birth to a son, Cary Benjamin—named after her father—in 2008.
