Teri Hatcher, Biography and Photos
Teri Lynn Hatcher was born December 8, 1964 in Sunnyvale, California and is an American actress. Sometimes people misspell it Terri or Terry. Teri Hatcher gained attention for her role as Lois Lane in the television series Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman co-staring with Dean Cain. In the mid-'90s, a publicity photo of Teri Hatcher wearing Superman's cape became the most downloaded image on America Online. Teri Hatcher has achieved her greatest fame to date starring in the show Desperate Housewives.
Teri Hatcher's father is a nuclear physicist and her mother a computer scientist (both of English descent). An only child, Teri Hatcher attended Mango Junior High (now Sunnyvale Middle School), Fremont High School in Sunnyvale and De Anza College in Cupertino.
In March 2006, Teri Hatcher told Vanity Fair that she was sexually abused for several years, beginning at the age of 5, by her then uncle, Richard Hayes Stone (who was later divorced by Teri Hatcher mother's sister). Teri Hatcher's parents, she said, were unaware of the abuse at the time. In 2002, Teri Hatcher assisted Santa Clara County, California prosecutors in indicting Richard Hayes Stone for a more recent molestation that led his female victim to commit suicide at the age of 14. Richard Hayes Stone plead guilty to four counts of molestation and was sentenced to 14 years in prison.
