Claire Stoermer Coleman was born on March 24, 1964, in Oakland, California, USA. She is of Dutch descent. Claire attended Oakland High School in her hometown. After graduating, she enrolled at Santa Clara University, where she studied from 1983 to 1987.
Claire has worked as an elementary school teacher in Oakland since 1990, dedicating her career to educating young minds. In addition to her role in education, she became the house manager for the California Shakespeare Theater in Orinda, California, in 1998. She also participated in the theater’s student program, supporting the training of young performers. Her daughter Zendaya often joined her there, taking part in stage productions and assisting with tasks such as seating patrons and selling raffle tickets to support the theater.
Claire met Kazembe Ajamu Coleman in the early 1990s, and the couple later married in 2008. They have one child together, Zendaya. Claire is also a mother to five other children from Kazembe’s previous relationships: daughters Katianna and Annabella, sons Austin and Julien, and another daughter, Kaylee. Zendaya, Claire and Kazembe's only biological child, was born on September 1, 1996, in Oakland. From an early age, Zendaya exhibited notable talent in dance and performance, which Claire nurtured through opportunities in theater and dance programs.
Zendaya’s career began to rise during her teenage years. At 16, she starred in Disney Channel’s “Shake It Up,” showcasing her dancing skills, primarily in hip-hop routines alongside co-star Bella Thorne. She also became the youngest-ever contestant on “Dancing with the Stars.” Zendaya pursued these opportunities to explore new experiences, with strong support from Claire and Kazembe—who also acted as her manager early in her career. Zendaya has often credited her parents for being selfless and supportive, with Claire even helping her document public appearances by recording videos.
Zendaya's growing fame reached new heights when it was announced that she would portray Mary Jane Watson, a key character in the 2017 film “Spider-Man: Homecoming,” opposite British actor Tom Holland. Claire voiced her commitment to continue supporting Zendaya as she took this significant step in her film career.
In August 2016, Claire Stoermer filed for divorce from Kazembe Ajamu Coleman after eight years of marriage. As Zendaya was already an adult, their separation did not involve any child support issues. Around that time, Zendaya faced online criticism directed at her parents. She responded publicly with a mature and thoughtful statement, defending them: “They have chosen to spend their entire lives not worried about trivial things such as looks and insulting people's parents on Twitter, but instead became educators who have dedicated their lives to teaching, cultivating, and filling young shallow minds—one of the most important yet underpaid jobs we have.”
