Rain Joan of Arc Phoenix (born November 21, 1972) is an American actress, musician, and singer. Phoenix has four siblings: two sisters, Liberty and Summer and two brothers, actors Joaquin and the late River Phoenix. ==Early life== Phoenix was born Rain Joan of Arc Bottom in Crockett, Texas, the second child of John Lee Bottom and Arlyn Sharon (née Dunetz). Her mother was born in the Bronx, New York to Jewish parents from Hungary and Russia.〔〔(Summer Phoenix : articles (part 1) )〕〔(Ten American showbiz celebrities of Russian descent – Pravda.Ru )〕 Her father was a lapsed Catholic from Fontana, California. In 1968, Phoenix's mother left her family and moved to California, meeting Phoenix's father while hitch-hiking. They married in 1969 and joined Children of God and worked as missionaries in South America. It was there, at the age of three, that Phoenix (accompanied by elder brother River on guitar) first began to sing. They would perform on the streets of Caracas, Venezuela for loose change while handing out Christian flyers to passers by. The family set out for California in order for the children to enter the entertainment industry. In West Los Angeles, Phoenix and her siblings would perform on the streets for crowds of people. Arlyn took a job at NBC and eventually secured all five Phoenix children with an agent. Phoenix sang with brother River as an audience warm up act on the show ''Real Kids'' (1982).Various bit parts followed in TV shows including ''Family Ties'' in 1987. Also in 1987, Phoenix landed a part in the feature film ''Maid to Order'' alongside Ally Sheedy. At 15, Phoenix returned to her roots in music and formed the band Aleka's Attic with her then 17-year-old brother River. River, along with bass player Josh McKay, wrote music and lyrics and Phoenix sang backup. The band secured gigs in and around their home town of Gainesville, Florida By this time, River's career had taken off and so the band was often put on hold for River's demanding schedule. In 1988, Aleka's Attic were signed to a development deal with Island Records and in 1989 released the track "Across The Way" on a benefit album for the animal rights group PETA. In 1991, they made a tour of east coast clubs and colleges. At this time, Phoenix joined her brother River on the set of his tenth movie, ''My Own Private Idaho''. She met director Gus Van Sant to whom River suggested she would be perfect for a role in his upcoming project, a film adaptation of Tom Robbins's cult novel, ''Even Cowgirls Get the Blues''. She was cast as head cowgirl Bonanza Jellybean, alongside Uma Thurman.
