Thurman was born in Boston, Massachusetts. Her half-Swedish, half-German mother Nena von Schlebrugg (b. 8 January 1941) was briefly married to Timothy Leary after the two were introduced by Salvador Dalí before marrying Thurman's father Robert Thurman (b. 14 October 1932), a professor at Amherst College of Indo-Tibetan Buddhist studies of British ancestry. Thurman and her siblings were given a Buddhist upbringing by her father, and she is named after a Hindu goddess. She has three brothers, named Ganden, Dechen and Mipam. Thurman and her siblings also spent extended amounts of time in India as children, and the Dalai Lama would sometimes visit their home.
Thurman was an awkward and introverted young girl, and was frequently teased as a child for her large six foot frame and features, size eleven feet, unique angular bone structure, and unusual name. Due to her father frequently teaching at different universities, her family often relocated when she was a child. She was also unathletic and earned average grades in school, but excelled in acting at a young age. Her first acting experiences came in elementary school plays. Thurman left her high school, Northfield Mount Hermon, to pursue an acting career in New York City and to attend the Professional Children's School, but dropped out before graduating.
