Alison Eastwood grew up on film sets. The daughter of legendary actor-director Clint Eastwood, she would go on to become an actress in her own right. But what do we know about her?

She was raised away from Hollywood

Alison was born in May 1972, in Santa Monica, California, to Clint Eastwood and his first wife, Maggie Johnson.

Eastwood’s big break was as The Man with No Name in Sergio Leone’s Dollars trilogy (1964-66) so his fame preceded Alison’s birth.

“When we were kids, my dad would take my brother and [me] for dinner, and people would come up to him for autographs. He’s not someone who craves that,” she told Closer Weekly in June 2022.

While the siblings were raised on the California coast, away from the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, Alison often joined her father on set.

“I remember getting to do the clapboard before they would start a camera roll in the scene, and I got to help out with craft service,” she reminisced in a September 2024 interview with Fox News Digital.

She starred in her first film at 11
