Alexandra Grant

A linguist, a philanthropist and a visual artist- yes, it is all about her, Alexandra Grant. Even though she reached unbelievable success on her own, she became known to millions of people across the globe only when she started dating a Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves.

Alexandra was born in Ohio in a family of well-established scholars. Her mother, Marcia Grant studied in Swarthmore, where she had the Peaslee scholarship. She is a foreign-service diplomat in the Middle East and Africa. The father, Norman Grant is a geology academic. Also, the celebrity has a sister named Florence, who is an editor and a writer by profession.

The beginning of Alexandra’s career started from a solo exhibit in LA, at the museum of Contemporary Arts. Her job includes collaboration with different artists, philosophers and other creative people. For instance, she interprets the texts and ideas of writers or even actors into her art. Her works have been exhibited in galleries worldwide.

Apart from that, she is also a mentor in art workshops. It would be interesting to know that she is not afraid of trying anything new, and so easily directed a movie Taking Lena Home. Finally, she founded a project called grantLOVE that helps unknown artists to promote their projects.
