Her father Lenny Kravitz was an award-winning singer, songwriter and musician, and her mother, actress Lisa Bonet, starred on the much-loved NBC comedy series, "The Cosby Show" (1984-1992). After six years of marriage, Kravitz's parents divorced and she ended up living with her father. The future star attended Miami Country Day School in Miami, FL prior to graduating from the Rudolf Steiner School in New York.

She played a supporting role opposite Catherine Zeta-Jones and Aaron Eckhart in the romantic drama "No Reservations" (2007), and a teen prostitute in the crime thriller "The Brave One," about a woman (Jodie Foster) who survives a brutal attack only to seek revenge against her assailants.

In 2008, Zoe completed work on Assassination of a High School President (2008), alongside Bruce Willis. She worked with Susan Sarandon and Pierce Brosnan on The Greatest (2009), which debuted at Sundance. Zoe has just wrapped on the latest Joel Schumacher film, Twelve (2010), co-starring Kiefer Sutherland, 50 Cent, Chace Crawford and Emma Roberts, which will be released in 2010.
