Early Years

Nicole Brown Simpson was born on May 19, 1959 in Frankfurt, Germany, to Juditha Brown and Louis Brown. Her mother was German and her father was American. Her parents had met each other when Louis was stationed as a correspondent in Germany. The family initially lived in Frankfurt and later moved to the United Sates, choosing to settle in California. Nicole had three siblings and led a happy life as a teen in California. She was often seen playing at the beach. She was a student of Rancho Alamitos High School and later enrolled in Dana Hills High School where she became the homecoming princess in her senior year. She decided to start working when she turned 18 and took up employment as a waitress at The Daisy, an elite Beverly Hills club. She met her future husband O. J. Simpson here.

Despite O.J. being a famous footballer, Nicole did not recognize him and her manager introduced her to him. Aside from waitressing, Nicole’s interest in modeling and photography led her to enroll in Saddleback College, but she was rarely seen there as she had started seeing O. J. Simpson. At this point, O. J.’s popularity as a sport star was on the decline, and his marriage to Marguerite Whitley was rocky. Nicole and O. J. fell in love with each other quickly and started dating. She eventually dropped out of college and moved in with him as Simpson’s career demanded travel and he wanted her besides him. Many friends of the couple reported that they had begun fighting early in their relationship and went through long periods of violence.
