Born February 17th, 1972 in Downers Grove, Illinois, Denise Richards has quickly propelled herself to sex symbol status within the film community. Her career though didn't start out with success. Richards did attempt modeling initially only to be rejected due to her vertically challenged height of 5'6". Acting though brought much more success. She also found romantic success at the same time, as her 1990 move brought her together with longtime love interest Patrick Muldoon. The two of them had lived together in Los Angeles for several years, but recently the two have split, according to gossip maven Ted Casablanca.
