In 1996 Jennifer starred as Becky in an episode of the series Spin City. Thanks to my friend Becca for capturing the episode for me!

Jennifer spoke with the Telegraph about finding a balance between work and family and having to deal with the paparazzi.
I just want to say that this article points out the main reasons why I refuse to post paparazzi pics on the site!
Jennifer Garner, the star of The Odd Life of Timothy Green, talks to Helena de Bertodano about Ben Affleck’s gossip-fuelling Oscars speech, why her career has taken a back seat to his (until now) and how she dealt with being stalked for seven years.
Jennifer Garner is on tenterhooks. She is sure she can hear rustling in the bushes around where we are sitting in the back garden of a house overlooking the Malibu coastline.
She stops talking mid-sentence and sits alert, like a startled animal ready to flee.
‘I thought I heard a paparazzi lens,’ she says, eyes scanning the thick shrubbery around the house (it’s rented for the photo-shoot).Garner, 40, who stars in the new film The Odd Life of Timothy Green – a fantasy drama about a couple who long for a child and suddenly find themselves the parents of a magical boy – shrugs and starts talking again.
‘Usually I’d see the light on the lens so maybe it’s just the leaves.’ But she remains uneasy. ‘I could swear there is someone there.’
Since marrying the actor and director Ben Affleck nearly eight years ago, Garner has become one of the most photographed celebrities in America.
Although already known for her award-winning performance in the thriller drama series Alias, as well as films such as Pearl Harbor (2001) and Catch Me If You Can (2002), her union with Affleck – with whom she starred in Daredevil (2003) – took her into a whole new stratosphere of celebrity.
Pictures are published daily of her most mundane activities: taking her children to school, going to the gym, buying groceries.
‘Seven cars followed me when I left home at seven o’clock this morning,’ she says, referring to the paparazzi. ‘I wish I could say that it doesn’t bother me. But you wouldn’t like it if you had it, and neither would anyone else. They sit outside my house every day. They wait for me at school drop-off and pick-up.’

People.com shared another story on Jen from the Neutrogena Sun Summit. This time Jennifer talks about how she gets her kids to stay safe and wear sunscreen.
Making sure to daily apply sunscreen on your children isn’t easy for any mom — but it sure is important, says mother-of-three Jennifer Garner, who has been working with Neutrogena’s Choose Skin Health initiative for six years.
“Of course it’s a struggle!” the actress, 40, tells PEOPLE Wednesday at the Neutrogena Sun Summit. “The kids do not like getting sunscreen put on, especially at at a certain age, at least not mine. If you have kids out there who like sunscreen, hallelujah!”
Garner, who admits she luckily missed out on the “major baking-in-the-sun years” by mostly staying inside when she was younger, wants to ensure that her children with husband Ben Affleck — Violet, 7, Seraphina, 4, and Samuel, 1 — also avoid future skin damage by educating them about the dangers.
“We talk about skin health, and they know why they have to wear sunscreen,” she says. “If someone forgets, they’ll say ‘Hey, did you forget to put sunscreen on me?’”
She also praises Neutrogena’s kid-friendly SPF application options for making things a little easier at home: “I give them a stick that they can rub on their faces. Or they can do a spray if they want it fast. I’ve used everything.”
And Garner admits she’s not above rewarding her kids for remembering their sunscreen.
“I know it’s horrible — and I’m admitting to bribery — but I’ve given them an M&M [for putting] sunscreen on before,” Garner reveals. “I’ve [also] done a sticker chart. I’ll do whatever it takes — it has to be a non-negotiable part of life.”

 Jen donates her time to Save the Children, an organization dedicated to helping children in poverty here in the United States. "I think that kids inspire you to do everything you can. You want to a great role model. But you don't need to be inspired to help other kids. You don't have to be a mom. You just see other kids in need and you want to reach out to them. It's just a basic human emotion."To learn more about Save the Children and the other organizations that Jen has been involved with go here. |
