Jennifer grew up in Norwell, Massachusetts with her three siblings – a boy and two girls. She is a graduate of Norwell High School, Cambridge School of Weston, and the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City.
Coolidge began gaining ground in 1993 when she starred in an episode of the Seinfeld series. She then starred in the film Not of this Earth and then A Bucket of Blood. After that, she played a vocal role in the series King of the Hill. Soon after that came Slappy and the Stinkers, and then Night at the Roxbury.
