Tracey Ullman, born Trace Ullman on December 30, 1959, in Slough, Berkshire, England, is a British-American actress, comedian, singer, dancer, screenwriter, producer, and director. She is known for her remarkable ability to transform into various characters and impersonate celebrities with hilarious accuracy.
Her father, Anthony John Ullman, was a Polish soldier who fought in World War II, and her mother, Doreen Ullman, was of British and Roma descent. When Tracey was six years old, her father died of a heart attack, and the family moved frequently, which helped her develop a talent for accents.
Tracey Ullman began her professional career as a dancer and singer in the late 1970s and early 1980s. She appeared in several stage shows and television programs, including "A Kick Up the Eighties" and "Three of a Kind."
She also had several hit songs in the UK, such as "They Don't Know," "Breakaway," and "Move Over Darling." In 1985, she moved to the United States and soon landed her own sketch comedy show on Fox, "The Tracey Ullman Show," which ran from 1987 to 1990.
The show featured Tracey Ullman playing a variety of original and parody characters, as well as introducing the world to "The Simpsons." Throughout her career, she has appeared in several feature films, including "I Love You to Death," "Robin Hood: Men in Tights," "Bullets Over Broadway," "Small Time Crooks," and "A Dirty Shame."
She has received numerous awards and nominations for her work in both comedy and drama, including Emmys, Golden Globes, BAFTAs, Satellite Awards, American Comedy Awards, and Screen Actors Guild Awards.
