Sarah Polley

Born: Jan 8, 1979

Sarah Polley is an actress and director renowned in her native CaNada. Blessed with an extremely expressive face that enables directors to minimize dialogue due to her uncanny ability to suggest a character's thoughts, Polley has become a favorite of critics for her sensitive portraits of wounded and conflicted young women in independent films.
She was born into a show business family: her father, MiChael appeared with her in the movie "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" and on the television series 'Road to Avonlea,' and her mother, Dianne, was an actress and caSting director. It was her mother's connections that launched Sarah, at her own insistence, on an acting career at the age of four, following in the footsteps of her older brother Mark (a second brother, John Buchan, is a caSting director and producer).
Her career as a child actress shifted into high gear when she was cast as the Cockney waif Jody Turner in ''Lantern Hill,'' (1991) for which she won a Gemini Award, the Canadian equivalent of the Emmy, in 1992. Produced by Kevin Sullivan, the film was based on the book by Lucy Maud Montgomery, author of "Anne of the Green Gables.'' When Sullivan created a television series based on Montgomery's work, he cast Polley in the lead role of Sara Stanley in 'Road to Avonlea'.
