Mayim Bialik's Transformation Is Seriously Turning Heads

Mayim Bialik has a long history in the entertainment industry. She's been acting since she was a preteen, but her journey to stardom wasn't as straightforward as you might think. So how did she get where she is today? Keep watching to see her stunning transformation!

Bialik was born on December 12th, 1975 in California to Jewish parents who were part of a Reform congregation. Reform is a less strict form of Judaism compared to the much more rigid Orthodox branch. Growing up, Bialik was heavily influenced by her family's heritage. Three of her grandparents were immigrants, and her mother was raised Orthodox, though she left Orthodoxy when she was a teenager. Her parents always taught her the importance of hard work in the form of chores and homework, even when she started acting at a young age.

Bialik's fascination with her Jewish heritage endured into adulthood. In college, she minored in Hebrew and Judaic studies. She also studied Yiddish and has visited Israel multiple times. It's clear that her upbringing in Reform Judaism has given her a lifelong passion and faith.

Bialik's passion for acting started when she participated in school plays as a child.

Unfortunately, Bialik didn't have as much luck getting into commercials as other child stars of her generation did.

For her first big-screen acting job, Bialik played a character with five lines in the 1988 horror movie Pumpkinhead. It was a pretty small part, but it wouldn't be long before she would become the star of the show.

Bialik's first big breakout role arrived in 1990 when she was cast as the lead character on the NBC sitcom Blossom.

Bialik's time on Blossom was hugely important and loads of fun. She and her co-star Jenna von Oÿ had a blast on set together, and they even learned to tap dance during their lunch breaks. The entire cast became like a real family, and the experience was as good as it possibly could be for the teenage Bialik.
