Julie Delpy was born in Paris (December 21, 1969) to Albert Delpy and Marie Pillet, both of whom were actors in feature films and in the avant-garde underground theatre. Encouraged to perform by her bohemian-minded parents, Delpy made her stage debut at the age of five. Beginning in 1990, she has been studying filmmaking at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, directing, writing and acting in more than 30 films. Delpy resides in Los Angeles and has been a naturalized United States citizen since 2001, although she also retains her French citizenship.
Delpy also is a musical artist. She released a self-titled CD in 2003. Three tracks from the album, A Waltz for a Night, An Ocean Apart and Je t'aime tant were featured in the movie Before Sunset.
