Julianne Moore is one of the world's most celebrated actors, but success didn't come quickly or easily to her. In fact, by the time she could truly be called a household name, she was already well into her mid-thirties. That might be one of the reasons why she left it a little later in life to start a family; taking time off to give birth at the precise moment your star has started to rise must be a daunting prospect.
Nevertheless, Moore did exactly that, taking a break in 1997 to have her son, Caleb, at the age of 36. Five years later, daughter Liv arrived, by which time Moore was 41. Despite her continued success on the big screen, Moore describes having a family as 'the greatest and most rewarding thing I've ever done' and tries hard to make sure her children grow up grounded and protected from the trappings of fame and wealth around them.
