Born Angelina Jolie Voight in Los Angeles, California, Jolie is the daughter of actors Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand. She is the niece of Chip Taylor and the goddaughter of Jacqueline Bisset and Maximilian Schell. She is also the sister of James Haven.

At the Premiere Magazine “Women in Hollywood” Awards, she said her mother was born in a bowling alley and has stated that because of her name people often assume that her mother is French. Jolie’s grandparents were French-Canadian. Her paternal grandfather was from Czechoslovakia. Her mother also studied with Lee Strasberg. She is of Czech and English descent on her father’s side, and French-Canadian and Iroquois on her mother’s side.
