Eisenberg kind of sounds the same as Zuckerberg. Was that why he was the Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Network (2010)? More than the name, Jesse quite looks like Mark with his curly light brown hair, pale colored skin and “inquisitive” eyes.
Date of Birth: October 5, 1983
Zodiac sign: Libra
The fast-talking star has starred in several roles and is quite an exceptional actor. Not all Hollywood celebrities were born with a silver spoon. Jesse is one of the middle class raised actors. He comes from quite a humble beginning and learnt discipline at a young age. Let’s take a look at the other Eisenbergs…
Who are Jesse Eisenberg’s parents?
Amy Eisenberg (mother)
For twenty years, Amy Eisenberg nee Fishman was a professional clown named Bonabini. Back in 1980s and 1990s, she performed at children’s birthday parties in their New Brunswick hometown. Amy was also a choreographer for a Catholic High School while she was Bonabini. All of these just go to show how ordinary Jesse’s background was.
In fact, Jesse says his mother’s former profession had a big impact on his acting career. When Amy was a clown, she would wake up early and begin to warm up her voice and tune her guitar; rehearsing diligently for her performances. It taught Jesse that one could take a thing seemingly little as that seriously. Isn’t it funny that Jesse got his career discipline form Bonabini!
Amy Eisenberg now teaches cross cultural sensitivity in hospitals.
Barry Eisenberg (father)
Barry is Jewish and brought up his family in the Jewish way. At first he worked as a taxi-cab driver before he owned and worked at his own hospital. Later, Barry taught in a college as a Professor of Sociology.
Who are Jesse Eisenberg’s siblings?
Kerrу Eisenberg (Kerry Lea) (sister, born to Barry Eisenberg and Amy Eisenberg)
Who knows where the Eisenberg kids got their vegetarian passion from? Maybe their parents were vegetarians? Now Kerrу Lea, she started a children’s theatre troupe that allows kids use their passion for compassion to change the world.
Changing the world here means educating people about vegetarianism and animal rights. The name of the theatre troupe is “The Acting Creatively Veg Kids”. Both Eisenberg siblings have also been a part of this movement.
