Hey, Julia Fans!
Today I’m revisiting Julia Louis Dreyfus! I posted about this celebrated actress a number of years ago when this Everything Summer Camp Blog was still young. Since I posted about her some while back, I thought we’d go back in order to get to know Julia just a bit better.
In her previous post, I discussed how she attended Sidwell Friends Tennis Camp and some other information like her most notable projects in her acting career. Today, however, I want to go real deep so we can attempt to really get to understand who Julia is, not as a celebrity, but as a person:
Julia Adventurer Dreyfus
Julia has a successful marriage with her husband Brad Hall. What keeps them going so strong? Well, they enjoy going on adventures with each other. They travel the world over with their free time and they practice several adventure sports such as River Rafting, Hiking, and Skiing. Julia enjoys going for hikes around the Pacific Palisades at least four times a week.
She’s Been Everywhere, Man
Because of Julia’s step-father’s occupation as a member of a non-governmental organization called Project Hope, Julia and her family would frequently stay on the move from country to country for a number of years. In the past, she’s lived in Sri Lanka, Colombia, and Tunisia as well as several different states in America.
Now That’s Inspiring
Liz Lemon, Tina Fey’s character from the hit comedy ’30 Rock’ was said (by Tina Fey) to have been heavily inspired by Ms. Julia Louis-Dreyfus. She was so touched by the sentiment that Julia went on ’30 Rock’ for a guest appearance in 2010.
Julia has made an impression on us all and likely inspired many more than she’ll ever know. She’s quoted to have said, “If you feel rooted in your home and family, if you’re active in your community, there’s nothing more empowering. The best way to make a difference in the world is to start making a difference in your own life.” And, with that, thanks for reading, Camp Fans!
