Jane van den Goorbergh

Jane van den Goorbergh (born January 9, 1969 in Mariëndijk, the Netherlands) is a Canadian actress and musician.

History
Jane was born in Mariëndijk, a hamlet in the Dutch province of South Holland which lies on the border of Honselersdijk and the grounds of the former Paleis Honselersdijk Huis Honselaarsdijk. Her father, IJsbrand van den Goorbergh, has teached horticulture at Sisler High School in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada since 1977. Her mother, Sinta van den Goorbergh, was an Indonesian-Korean opera singer and animal rights activist. She has a younger sister, Mina, and two younger brothers, Maharishi van den Goorbergh and Mozart van den Goorbergh. She and some of her family moved to Canada in 1972, however, while her sister and her brothers retain Dutch and Canadian citizenship, Jane is a naturalized Canadian citizen.

In 1985, Jane's mother was assassinated during an animal rights protest at a McDonald's in Hampton Beach, New Hampshire, United States by a centre-right politician, leading Jane into a deep depression. She attempted suicide twice, and in 1987, was let go from The Jeff Jones Show, quickly being replaced with Umeko Izumikawa.
