Geena Davis

If the former can throw knives, this well-established actress used to shoot arrows! In 1999, she reportedly made it to the US Olympic semifinals for the famous sport of archery. She might not have been qualified to play in the 2000 Summer Olympics, since she was placed 24th out of 300 players. Not too shabby, isn’t it? Well, maybe sports is not for her— but showbiz is. Prior to this, she was already an Academy award-winning actress after she won Best Supporting Actress for her acting credits in the 1988 movie The Accidental Tourist.

Virginia Elizabeth Davis was born on January 21, 1956, in Wareham, Massachusetts. She is not just an actress but also a producer, writer, and model. She is one of the most sought-after actresses in the world from the 1990s to the 2000s. Among her popular film projects are The Long Kiss Goodnight, Thelma & Louise, and A League of Their Own.
