Jennifer Garner wanted to be a librarian when she was a child. The "Alias" star - who is married to actor Ben Affleck - wasn't interested in pursuing a Hollywood career when she was younger, and also dreamed of being a children's author.
Jennifer - who was raised in Princeton and later Charleston, both in West Virginia - said: "This is about as far from Hollywood as any place on Earth. I wanted to be a children's book author and a librarian."
"My mom took my sisters and me to the library once a week when we were kids. It's such a huge community centre, especially in a town that has very few resources. To have a place with 100 computers and internet access to everyone for free, that's really important in a town like this."
Despite her youthful ambitions, the actress - who has a two-year-old daughter, Violet, with Ben and is currently expecting their second child - has no plans to put pen to paper or turn her back on acting in the near future.
She added: "I would love to but I haven't had the inspiration yet."
