Marisa Tomei was born on December 4, 1964, in Brooklyn, New York. Her mother, Adelaide, was a teacher, and her father, Gary, was a trial lawyer. Her paternal grandparents, Rita and Romeo, helped raise Marisa and her younger brother, Adam (who also grew up to become an actor), and she performed in plays while attending Andries Hudde Junior High School and Edward R. Murrow High School. After graduating in 1982, Tomei enrolled at Boston University, but she dropped out after she was cast on the CBS soap opera "As the World Turns."

After her award-winning stage debut, Marisa appeared in the films "Oscar" (1991) and "Zandalee" (1991), and in 1992, she earned rave reviews for playing Mona Lisa Vito in "My Cousin Vinny" alongside Joe Pesci. After she won the Oscar, film critic Rex Reed suggested that Tomei didn't actually win and that Jack Palance had announced the incorrect name, but his allegation was disproved. That year, Marisa also co-starred with Robert Downey Jr. in "Chaplin," and she soon appeared in "Untamed Heart" (1993) and reunited with Downey for "Only You" (1994).

This resulted in a 2,265 square foot space that included two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and she put the home on the market for $7.5 million in 2018. She ultimately pulled the sale listing and instead put the unit up for rent for $12,000 per month. She still owns the apartment today.
