Samantha Jones is a fictional character on the HBO-produced television series Sex and the City. She is portrayed by actress Kim Cattrall. Samantha is one of four single friends portrayed in the series.

Of the four, she is the most sexually promiscuous, and most of her storylines revolve around the frequent sex she has. She is confident, strong, outspoken, and a self-proclaimed "try-sexual" (meaning she'll try anything once). Samantha is the oldest of the four friends (in the final scene of Sex and the City: The Movie, her 50th birthday is celebrated), and she owns her own public-relations company.

Not much is known about Samantha's younger years, except that she came from more of a working class background, and she spent most of her teenage years selling Dilly bars at Dairy Queen to earn pocket money. Season 3 implies that she has at least two siblings, when she mentions that at her age her mother "was saddled with three kids and a drunk husband." She later mentions partying at Studio 54 during its heyday, implying she moved sometime in the mid to late-1970s from wherever she grew up to New York City. She has mentioned having had at least two abortions, one of which occurred while she was in college.
