He is the son of actor Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand, as well as actress Angelina Jolie's older brother.
Early life
Haven was born in Los Angeles, California, on May 11, 1973, to actress Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand. Angelina Jolie, his younger sister, is a child actress who has performed on stage. Their uncles, Chip Taylor, and volcanologist Barry Voight, are among the singer-songwriters and volcanologists. Haven is of German and Slovak descent, and he is of French-Canadian, Dutch, Polish, and German descent on his mother's side. Despite Bertrand's assertion that she had Iroquois ancestry, Voight said Bertrand was "not seriously Iroquois" and a Huron woman born in 1649 is her only known Native American ancestor.
Haven and his sister were raised by their mother after his parents' divorce in 1976. She and them migrated to Palisades, New York, after giving up acting. A decade later, when Haven was 13 years old, the family moved to Los Angeles, where he attended Beverly Hills High School. Following graduation, he joined the USC School of Cinema-Television. He received a George Lucas Award for a student film starring his sister while at the University of Southern California.

Haven was estranged from their father for many years, with the exception of "Voight" being his surname. After a six-year absence, he reconciled with his father after his mother's death from ovarian cancer on January 27, 2007. Haven converted to Christ in 2009.
