Tara was born November 8, 1975, in Wyckoff, New Jersey. Tara is an accomplished star actress.
She is the daughter of Tom and Donna Reid, both teachers who run a pair of day care centers.
Tara is of Irish, Italian, French, Hungarian, and English decent, but she has the unique all-American
look.
By the time Tara was five years old, she was showing off, singing and dancing on the tables in the
local mall. A New York talent agent caught her impromptu act and immediately gave her a contract to
work in commercials. Her cute smile graced children's game shows, and she acted in commercials for
Crayola, Jell-O and McDonald's. Tara didn't stop her young ambition there, and decided to make
professional acting a career goal.
To prepare for her future, she attended the prestigious Professional Children's School in New York
City. Her classmates included Sarah Michelle Gellar, Jerry O'Connell, MaCualay Culkin, and Ben Taylor.
In 1994, Tara was cast on the long time teen institution, "Saved By the Bell". The show is not exactly
known for creating successful actresses, but Tara proved to be the exception. After spending a year
with that TV production, she moved on to daytime television, with a recurring role on "Days of
Our Lives". A number of good, but not great roles followed, most notably roles in "Urban Legends",
and "Cruel Intentions".
Then, in the summer of 1999, Tara's career finally took off with "The Big Lebowski", where Tara was
cast as Bunny, the much younger wife of The Big Lebowski. Tera next starred as Vicki in "American Pie",
the surprise gross-out hit of the year, along with sexpot Shannon Elizabeth. Tara's fame can be firmly
attributed to this highly successful film where she played a virgin named Vicki.
Tara's role's in these films centered around high school and sex, and featured a number of unforgettable
scenes and struck a chord with teenagers acrossed the country. The film's box office success tossed Tara
into the spotlight and created such an impression that she has not had a second to spare these days.
Tara is a young, bright, and extremely sexy celebrity with a very promising future. Her happy-go-lucky
attitude makes Tara an easy actress to work with. The reason she has a legion of fans is simple, she
is a very talented sexy girl with a physique worthy of worship.
