Biography

Lucius was born in 1922. He was the son of Lucius Foster and Constance Robertson. He passed away in 2016.

"Lucius Fisher Foster III, an Air Force Lieutenant Colonel, already had three children by a previous wife, when he met Evelyn Ella "Brandy" Almond and married her impetuously in Tijuana, Mexico after a New Year's celebration in 1954. It was also Brandy's second marriage. The marriage however was rocky and after three children, Brandy filed papers for divorce 3 Aug 1959 in Los Angeles Superior Court. ("Foster Child", p5 wj). Lucius did not respond to the papers, and so the divorce was finalized two years later. Lucius and Brandy had been divorced for some time before Jodie was born. Her brother Buddy explains Jodie's conception as the result of a brief re-encounter between their parents some time after the divorce. Alicia Christian "Jodie" Foster was born 19 Nov 1962 in Los Angeles County, California, the youngest daughter of four children. At Jodie's delivery, Aunt Jo, Brandy's lover according to Buddy Foster's book, went into the delivery room with Brandy for a 36-hour labor. The umbilical cord was wrapped around Jodie's neck. Brandy stayed in the hospital for a week. (Foster Child, p12 wj) Jodie's mother supported the family by doing public relations work for a film producer ("What's Driving Miss Foster?" by Michael Segell. Redbook, Nov 1991). Both Jodie's parents later briefly married other people."
