Jada Pinkett-Smith began her career on the popular “Cosby Show” (NBC, 1984-92) spin-off, “Another World” (NBC, 1987-1993), and in only a few years, found herself literally in “another world” as a leading film actress, television producer, and one of Hollywood’s most notorious have-it-all moms, married to the biggest movie star in the world. As an ambitious newcomer in the early 1990s, Pinkett-Smith might have floated by on her sheer will and charismatic screen presence alone, but she made her mark by resisting being stereotyped into the usual one-dimensional roles allotted for African-American
