Abstract Actress and producer Daphne Reid was born in New York City on July 13, 1948. After attending the Bronx High School for Science, Reid received a scholarship to Northwestern University, where she graduated in 1970, and became Northwestern's first black homecoming queen, as well as the first African American to grace the cover of Glamour magazine. In 1979, Reid made her television debut on The Duke, and went on to notable guest appearances on The A-Team, WKRP in Cincinnati and Simon & Simon, among other programs. In 1993, Reid took over the role of Aunt Viv on The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, remaining until 1996. In 1997, she and her husband, Tim Reid, founded their own production company, New Millennium Studios, in Virginia, the first African American production operation since Oscar Micheaux's to handle projects from start to finish.
