Actors📍 Sydney📍 Australia

📍Longueville, Lane Cove, Sydney, NSW 2066, Australia

1971 – 1985

“Nicole Kidman grew up in Longueville, a quiet, leafy enclave on Sydney's Lower North Shore where the streets slope down to the still water of the Lane Cove River. Her parents — Antony, a biochemist and psychologist, and Janelle, a nursing instructor active in the Women's Electoral Lobby — filled the house with books and lively political debate. In a conservative suburb the bookish, unusually tall girl often felt like an outsider, and took refuge in reading and in the family's well-stocked library, becoming the characters she found in its pages. Enrolled in ballet at three, she learned early that she could disappear into someone else — the seed of a life spent inhabiting other lives.”

👍 LovedThe calm of the river streets, and a home full of books and ideas that gave a shy, imaginative girl room to dream
👎 DislikedFeeling like an outsider in a conservative suburb, and being teased for her height
