Anna Kendrick was born on August 9, 1985, in Portland, Maine. As a child, her high energy level and outgoing personality led her into acting, which also became an interest to her older brother, Michael Cooke Kendrick. Anna Kendrick's acting aspirations took shape on the stage, starting with her debut as Tessie in a 1991 production of Annie. With that, she was off to the races and had her own talent manager by age 10.
After a stint in a Maine State Music Theatre production of Gypsy, Anna Kendrick got her first big break -- she was cast as Dinah in High Society, which premiered on Broadway in 1999. Anna Kendrick received rave reviews for her role, including a Tony Award nomination (she was the second youngest nominee ever) and awards from the Drama Desk and Theatre World respectively. Anna Kendrick continued her theater work, but also finished her schooling as an honors student at Deering High School.
A Tony nominee at the age of 12, actress Anna Kendrick graduated from top honors in the theater world to film stardom in a string of popular mainstream and independent releases in the late 2000s. After wowing the Broadway world in a 1998 production of "High Society," she impressed critics and audiences alike with her film debut in the 2003 comedy-musical, "Camp." Kendrick earned more praise for 2007's "Rocket Science," which preceded her biggest movie then to date, the teen vampire romance, "Twilight" (2008). Subsequent roles in major Hollywood features opposite Ben Stiller and a supporting actress Oscar nomination for "Up in the Air" (2009) solidified her status as one of the brightest up-and-coming talents in entertainment.
