Anna Chlumsky Biography
Anna Chlumsky was born on December 3rd, 1980 in Chicago, Illinois. She is a startling and immensely encouraging contrast to the long standing rule that child celebrities are emotionally and psychologically damaged. She comes off as the girl down the street who gets good grades in school, loves her parents, and even considers the price before ordering items from a menu. She isn’t the type of person to turn heads wherever she goes as she dresses like every other teen, wearing a striped cotton sweater, jeans and high-tops. She doesn’t wear a whole lot of jewelry and very little makeup, and she wears her hair just as every other teenager does. Anna is no stranger to show business, she appeared in her first magazine advertisements when she was only ten months old. She has also appeared in industrial films, TV commercials, and in two productions of “Annie“, as well as an on stage performance in “Fiddler on the Roof” and “The Music Man“.
    She made her film debut as a hypochondriac tomboy in “My Girl (1991)” opposite Macaulay Culkin. Her role in this movie led to the sequel “My Girl 2 (1994)” where she travels to Los Angeles to discover her dead mother. Her next movie, “Trading Mom (1994)” was again about mothers where she co-starred with Sissy Spacek, who played the mother that was replaced by her evil clone. Anna played a neglected tom-boy and shared the screen with Christina Ricci in “Gold Diggers: The Secret of Bear Mountain (1995)“. The two become friends and share a number of adventurous scrapes with the spoiled city girl played by Ricci. She played two more roles in 1997: “A Childs Wish” and “Miracle in the Woods“. 1998 brought her a part in the tv-series “Cupid”, where she played a homeless girl called Jill, and a part in “Early Edition”.
