Daryl Hannah was born in Chicago, Illinois, the daughter of Susan Wexler, a producer, and Don Hannah, a tugboat and barge company owner. Her parents divorced shortly after her birth and her mother remarried Jerrold Wexler, a businessman and brother of Haskell Wexler, a noted cinematographer. Hannah has been a vegetarian since age eleven. She grew up with siblings Don Hannah and Page Hannah, now married to record producer Lou Adler, as well as half-sister Tanya Wexler.

Daryl Hannah became interested in movies at a young age, partly due to insomnia. She was very shy and diagnosed as “borderline autistic”. Hannah attended the private Francis W. Parker School (where she played on the boys’ soccer team) and the Chicago Latin school before enrolling at the University of Southern California.
