Biographie
Jones grew up in Florida and lived in Buffalo, NY during her high school years. She attended Wellesley College in Wellesley, Massachusetts, majoring in art history, so she could also take film studies courses at nearby MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
After she won first place at the American Film Institute National Student Festival for her short film A Weekend Home (1975), Martin Scorsese, one of the judges, liked her work and offered her a job as his assistant as he directed Taxi Driver. It was there that she met her future boss, Roger Corman. Seven years later, on the set of Slumber Party Massacre, she would meet her future husband, cinematographer Michael Chapman.
Jones has stated that there are times when actors will have scenes rewritten in order to make themselves more appealing to the public, event though it may not be the best thing for the film itself.
Jones found recurring work after working on the first installment of the Beethoven film series with John Hughes - developing the characters for the 3rd, 4th and 5th editions which went straight to video.
