Early life and education

Blair was born Selma Blair Beitner in Southfield, in the metropolitan area of Detroit, Michigan, the youngest child of Judge Molly Ann (née Cooke) and Elliot I. Beitner.

Blair had a Jewish upbringing - her Hebrew name is Bat-Sheva. Her father was an attorney, active in the U.S. Democratic Party and labor arbitrator until his death in 2012 at the age of 82. Her parents divorced when Blair was 23; she subsequently legally changed her surname. She has three older sisters - Katherine, Elizabeth, and Marie Beitner.

Blair attended Hillel Day School, a Jewish day school in Farmington Hills; and Cranbrook Kingswood in Bloomfield Hills soon after, she spent her freshman year (1990-91) in Kalamazoo College, where she studied photography and acted in the play The Little Theater of the Green Goose. At that time, she wanted to be a ballerina and a horse trainer.

Later, at the age of 20, Blair moved to New York City, where she lived at The Salvation Army in poor living conditions. She attended NYU, as well as acting classes at the Stella Adler Conservatory, the Column Theatre, and the Stonestreet Screen Acting Workshop; later, she returned to Michigan to finish her studies. After transferring from New York University, she graduated magna cum laude from the University of Michigan in 1994 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography, Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, and a double major in Fine Arts and English. After graduating from Michigan, Blair returned to New York City to pursue a career in the arts.

Career

1990-1998: Career beginnings

In 1990, during her time at Cranbrook Kingswood, Blair was involved in a production of T.S. Eliot’s Murder in the Cathedral. According to Blair, it was a failure, but her English teacher told her not to give up; that was the first time she thought she could be an actress. In 1993, she began training at acting schools in New York. She was discovered by an agent in acting class; subsequently, Blair signed with her. After 75 auditions, she got her first advertising contract for a television spot ad for a theater in Virginia, for which she received her Screen Actor's Guild membership.

Blair began auditioning in the mid-1990's. Her first audition was for a cereal commercial. She won her first professional role in 1995, in an episode of the children's television sitcom The Adventures of Pete & Pete. She portrayed the love interest of the main character Big Pete. In 1996, she landed her first feature film role in The Broccoli Theory, an "unromantic comedy" set in NYC. In 1997, she made her first appearance on a mainstream feature film, the Kevin Kline comedy In & Out. Blair auditioned six times for the role and remained several weeks on the set, but most of her scenes were cut from the final screened edition. She won her first lead role in a feature film on the teen drama Strong Island Boys, based on true events about a Long Island 80's street gang. Alec Baldwin gave her a favorable review - he called her "a cross between Debra Winger and Marlene Dietrich".

Later, she was selected to take the lead in the fantasy film Amazon High alongside Karl Urban.
