Tia Mowry, born Tia Dashon Mowry on July 6, 1978, in Gelnhausen, West Germany, is best known as an accomplished actress on American television. She was born into a close-knit, spiritual Christian family and raised with strong values. Her mother, Darlene Renee Mowry, who is of Afro-Bahamian descent, managed Tia and her siblings' early careers. Her father, Timothy Mowry, is of English descent and served in the U.S. Army, which is how the family came to be stationed in Germany during Tia's birth.
Tia rose to fame in the 1990s, co-starring with her identical twin sister, Tamera Mowry, in the widely popular sitcom Sister, Sister. The show aired from 1994 to 1999 and became a household favorite, cementing the sisters’ place in television history. As children, the twins enthusiastically participated in talent shows and beauty pageants, eventually helping to launch their entertainment careers.
After relocating to California, Tia and Tamera began securing roles in television, including guest appearances on the show Full House. Their film and TV credits grew, with Tia taking on notable roles in Disney Channel's Twitches (2005) and its sequel, Twitches Too (2007), both of which paired her again with Tamera. In 2000, they starred together in the fantasy-comedy film Seventeen Again.
Between 2006 and 2012, Tia portrayed medical student Melanie Barnett in the CW/BET hit dramedy The Game, a role that brought her critical acclaim. In 2013, she began starring in Nickelodeon’s sitcom Instant Mom, where she played Stephanie Phillips, a young stepmother trying to blend with her new family.
