Actress Jess Weixler grew up in Louisville, KY, then later attended and graduated from the drama program at Juilliard. She scored her first major screen role as a stripper taking a swim class in Ishai Setton's comedy drama The Big Bad Swim (2005), but attained much broader recognition as a young virgin cursed with a bizarre and grisly anatomical aberration in Mitchell Lichtenstein's eccentric horror comedy Teeth (2007).
