Elizabeth Hanks – Tom Hanks’ Daughter

Tom Hanks’ kids with Samantha Lewes must indeed be in awe of his profession as an actor. Elizabeth, Colin’s younger sister, was also an actress and she’s known for her performance in Tom’s film, Forrest Gump. The movie was back in 1994, and Elizabeth appeared in another film in 1996 titled That Thing You Do! After her 1996 film credit, Elizabeth went on a hiatus where she neither acted, produced, or directed.

The multi-talented star went on a hiatus for the reason of pursuing an education. Out of Tom Hanks’ kids, you could argue that Elizabeth is the most well-educated out of the four. Elizabeth’s a graduate of the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. Elizabeth is also an editor by profession, and she’s worked for L.A. Review, The Huffington Post, and Vanity Fair. At the end of the day, the young woman makes it a point to keep her life private despite being the daughter of one of the most recognizable actors of this decade.
