Justine Bateman was raised in a show business family. She is the daughter of Kent Bateman, an established Film producer, and Victoria, a flight attendant. Her brother Jason Bateman is also a successful actor/producer.
Appearing in amateur and professional theatre starting at age 11, her first regular television role did not come until 1982. That is when she was cast as Mallory Keaton on Family Ties, the role that she is unarguably best known for.
Throughout the 7 Season run of Family Ties and afterwards, Justine Bateman appeared occasionally in
… More made for TV movies and hosted specials. Her slow decline in to TV obscurity was stalled in 1996 when she landed the role as Sarah on the US version of Men Behaving Badly for the shows 2 season run.In Jan 2001 Justine married Mark Fluent. They have a son, Duke Kenneth Fluent (born: Jun 2002) and a daughter Olivia (born: Jan-2004). Except for the odd gig as an actress, Justine Bateman spends her time on her successful second career designing fashion knit hats and skivvies for today's stars.
I am a fan of Justine Bateman. She was great as Mallory Keaton on Family Ties . I have been watching her most recent work on Men In Trees . I like her character Lynn. I think that Lynn and Jack should stay together. I think Marin should be with someone other than Jack. I hope Justine remains on… More the show. I am glad that she returned to acting. I recently saw a picture of Justine holding her 3-year-old daugther Gianetta. Her daughter is a cutie. :) She also has a 4-year-old son Duke.

No one is scooping up quality guest stars like NBC's 30 Rock. The comedy, which launches season three later this month, has already lined up Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Aniston, Blake Lively, and Leighton Meester--that's some pretty crazy bling for a show that barely anyone watches.
But Tina Fey isn't done wrangling in A-listers for small parts. The writer/actress has struck gold again, this time bringing in Salma Hayek.
