What is Known About ‘Gilmore Girls’ Lauren Graham’s Family?

Lauren, a successful American actress whom many of you know by her main role in the Gilmore Girls, was born in Honolulu and raised in Washington. Lauren finished her studies at Southern Methodist University and moved to New York to find her lucky star. There she was working as a waitress and taking on auditions.

When Lauren relocated to Hollywood, she finally had a chance to take on small roles including Townies and Lush Life. The breakthrough rushed in 2000 when she was cast in Gilmore Girls, where she played Lorelai Gilmore, a single mom to Rory Gilmore.

Date of birth: March 16, 1967

Lauren’s other prominent works include Sweet November, Because I Said So, and Evan Almighty. Despite being busy with further casts, she is a creative writer and storyteller. In 2013, she wrote her debut novel Someday, Someday, Maybe which hit the book ranks and will be adapted into a TV series soon.

Success comes from skills and hard work, but who raised a talented actress is a question you may wonder right now. So let’s discover some facts about her family ties.

In 1966, Lawrence was serving in South Vietnam, where he worked in refugee camps and was building towns and roads. In 1968, he got back to New York and took a job in the Wall Street law firm. For many years he was changing jobs, but his greatest job was waiting ahead. In 1982, he was successfully serving as Executive vice president of the National Food Processors Association. In 1992, he was appointed as President of the NCA (National Confectionary Association), where he worked until his retirement in 2014.

Apart from the successful rise in the ‘candy industry’, his life story includes two marriages: first marriage with Lauren’s mother Donna, and second marriage – to his current wife Karen McHale.

As Lauren recalls, she was five years old when her parents divorced. She was raised by her father who gave her both love and support.
