Alison Lohman / Alison Lohman /

Alison Lohman, daughter of the architect and the hostess a small bakery, was born in the outskirts of Palm Springs, California, USA. There are no prerequisites for the emergence of the desire for a live audience, the girl was not, but that is what most worried Alison childhood. And good reason, because young Loman began to show acting skills as early as nine years. It was at this age, she first appeared on stage theater "Palm Desert's McCallum" of his native town, to play Greta, the little heroine of the musical "The Sound of Music". In eleven years, Alison has played a major role in the musical "Annie".
At the same time develop their dramatic skills in the school years, Alison worked hard dance and ballet, which devoted considerable time. As a result, in high school she became a prize winner of the National Endowment for the Arts. And then it was offered to go to the famous New York acting school. However, this proposal Alison did not use. At age 17 she moved to Los Angeles to try his hand at cinema. In her own words, she "simply hid and watched what happens". It turned out that Alison is soon found and invited to television. In the late 90's she played small roles in television series and television movies ( "Tucker", "Use a secret", "Pasadena") and almost incidental - in pictures "The Thirteenth Floor", "Planet Patrol", "delivery man Milo" and "White guy.
So would she played the role of the second plan, if it had not found herself on listening to young actresses for the film "White Oleander". She passionately wanted to get the role of the heroine and was the best among the four contenders. Alison admits that she probably just lucky, because she has no idea how she managed to get the role! The premiere of the drama "White Oleander" in 2002 showed the world a new talent. On the posters the movie its name stood next to the names of Michelle Pfeiffer, . Renee Zellweger and Robin Wright Penn! Here, Alison has played a serious dramatic role of a minor Astrid, . experiencing difficult life problems, . allow that not every adult on the shoulder,
. Her mother, beautiful designer Ingrid Magnussen (Michelle Pfeiffer), kills her boyfriend and goes to prison. Astrid is in an orphanage, and then wanders to foster families. But it never is the place ... By force if such a girl, even with a very independent character? One likely to find Astrid alone are not the answers to simple questions?
In "White Oleander" Alison was not lost among the brightest stars - it is present on the screen on an equal footing with them. Any in its place, probably, would have felt pride and joy of such close proximity, would have thought that it promises success and fame. However, all this seems to care, Alison. Popularity and fame do not disturb her: Whatever it was, "White Oleander" has brought her success, and today all have great hopes on it. This is undoubtedly why she was on the filming of "Big Fish" Tim Burton Act, which removed the star of the first magnitude - Ewan McGregor, Albert Finney, Helena Bonham-Carter, Steve Buscemi and Danny De Vito. Here Alison plays the heroine of the famous Jessica Lange in his youth. In the new comedy Ridley Scott's "Matchstick Men" Loman became partner Nicolas Cage, playing Angela, the daughter of his hero.

There are no Alison boyfriend. And in general, its relationship with the real world this complicated. The actress admits that it has an amazing gift to build relations with people on the feeling of love-hate. On the set every day someone says, in her address: "This petrified that I feel that I need to call the director and say:" You probably have to invite other actresses ". Lohman really reserved, but she has an amazing ability to unfold on the stage, on set. Glory does not attract Alison - she stubbornly tries to remain in the shadows, but the role in "Matchstick Men" and "White Oleander", as well as new, even larger projects simply do not allow her the.
As for new projects, the actress, then on such date, there are two. This is primarily a drama of the famous Canadian director Atom Egoyan "Where to hide the truth", where Alison occupied in the title role, has actually will pull in a whole movie.
