Born on December 8, 1993, AnnaSophia’s first love wasn’t always acting. She competed in dance competitions and gymnastics for 5 years and even won an Irish dancing award when she was seven years old! She quit to focus her full attention on acting but still loves to dance in her spare time. The first time she performed was at age five on the stage of her church in hometown Denver Colorado!

For some actors a career in film seems to be in the cards from the very beginning; such was the case with early bloomer AnnaSophia Robb. The only child of an architect and an interior designer, Robb knew from the age of five that she was destined for a career as an entertainer. A Denver, CO native who never wavered in her determination to succeed, Robb convinced her parents to let her take an acting class before setting out on her first round of L.A. auditions in 2003. It was during this time that her new manager and agent team would help young Robb successfully navigate the Hollywood audition scene, her family living in a modest guest house as her father worked and her mother took Robb to auditions during the daytime hours. By the end of the summer, Robb had attended no less than 42 auditions and had landed her first role as a Bratz-loving Happy Meal fan in a McDonald's commercial.

With a maturity and on-screen presence well beyond her age, teen actress AnnaSophia Robb built up an impressive resume in a very short amount of time - something few other child actors had managed to do. Starring in her first feature film, "Because of Winn-Dixie" (2005), at the age of nine, Robb proved she had a natural on-screen charm. Whether starring in the imaginative family film "Bridge to Terebithia" (2007) or appearing opposite Academy Award-winning actresses Hilary Swank in "The Reaping" (2007), or Charlize Theron in "Sleepwalking" (2008), Robb showed that she could hold her own on the big screen, securing a spot as one of Hollywood's talented young actresses to watch.
