People Magazine 1985 claims she was born in 1967. She claims herself she was 7 when she was on the ALICE DOESN'T LIVE HERE ANYMORE set. She was born in 1967.

Wouldn't it be 1970 if she said that she and Witherspoon are only six years apart? But yeah, I don't buy it. There's no way she's, what, 15 when she made Blue Velvet. What's the point of lying when you have famous parents? Still love her.
It's an ordinary high school day. Except that it's not. -

Most sources/interviews say 1967, and I believe that one. She would've been about seven in Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore, and she appears that age in the brief shot.
Let's say no to homophonia. We all sound the same inside. -

Did you think you were too young to play Reese Witherspoons mom in Wild?
Dern: We all did, which was really good news for my ego. Were six years apart. Dont check IMDb, because they are wrong about my age, and I think they are probably wrong about hers too. Its so insane that everybody goes by IMDb.
By how many years are they off?
Dern: Only by two, but it means a lot. They have that Im 47. Im going to be 46, people. Im really pissed. Weve got to change that. But anyway, Im even closer to Reeses age than people might think if they read IMDb.
2 years? that is really nothing. making such a big deal about it kind of makes her look desperate. that is not flattering at any age. -

If you search CaliforniaBirthIndex.org, 02.10.1967 is listed as her DOB. Thus, the California Office of Health Information and Research, who compiles this database from birth certificate abstracts (which is public information in that state) suggests IMDB and Wikipedia are correct and she is not being truthful. (Her mother's name in their recordb68s is listed as Ladner, which is what wikipedia lists as the spelling of her mother's birth name, as opposed to Ladnier listed on IMDB. A side note, but this info does confirm it is the listing for the correct Laura Dern.)
I'm not sure why she would even try to lie about her age given that (a.) information is so readily available on the internet these days from reputable sources (like state agencies/offices); and (b.) birth records for those born in California are public information/publicly available. So, it's not difficult to prove her birth date. She's pretty bold (or perhaps just not very smart) if she's claiming the CA Office of Vital Records has her birth year wrong.
It all just makes her look pathetic.
And I actually think she looks old even for having been born in 1967. -

Her birth record is listed on Ancestry.com and familysearch.org too. She was born in 1967. You can find anything for free on familysearch.org too.

Bad news for Laura Dern:
She probably won't be able to hide her real age from IMDB:

I used to lie about my age, but only because I got tired of people telling me how they thought I was much younger. Even now, people think me to be a good 10-13 years younger than my actual age. But I tell the truth now because I don't want to scare people in four years when i hit 40 and might just look my age (most young looking people look their age by 40).
As for her. WTF? She looks and always did look much older than her actual age. This is some really bad insecurity. -

You folks act as though a woman lying about her age has never happened before.
There are 8.2 billion people in the world. 8.19 billion of them have never heard of and don't give a fuck about Charlie Kirk. Get over it.
