Biography:

Elisha Ann Cuthbert was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, on November 30, 1982. Along with her two younger siblings, Jonathan and Lee-Ann, she relocated to Vancouver with her parents, Kevin and Patricia.

Eventually, the Cuthbert family moved to the East and settled in the Montreal suburb of Greenfield Park, in the province (state) of Quebec. Elisha was quite mischievous as a little girl, even making her mother believe that she was lactose intolerant because she didn't like the taste of milk. She was such a good actress that this ploy worked for years.

Elisha Cuthbert child model
Cuthbert's career in the entertainment industry began in 1990, when she was 7 years old. That year, she started modeling children's clothing in a variety of catalogs and magazines, and was even a foot model. It wasn't the most glamorous job but it gave her access to free cookies, as she recalls.

But 1997 was the decisive year of her young career. After an appearance in the family film Dancing on the Moon, Cuthbert was chosen to become a global correspondent for the award-winning show, Popular Mechanics for Kids.

Elisha hosts popular mechanics for kids
For three years, she traveled the world for the series and did things other kids only dream about, such as eating seal meat in the North Pole, snorkeling with sharks, and steering an aircraft carrier. While trotting the globe as a correspondent for the award-winning series "Popular Mechanics for Kids" (1997), she caught the eye of First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton and was invited to Washington for a meeting with her.

Still, even though she was busy with Popular Mechanics for Kids, Elisha took on other projects. She had a starring role alongside Joe Mantegna in the air disaster adventure Airspeed (1998) and followed it up with the family fantasy, Nico the Unicorn (1998).

She continued her family film streak in 1999 with Who Gets the House? and Time at the Top. That same year, she was cast in Nickelodeon's "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" and kept it up for one year.

After sharing the screen with Randy Quaid in the made-for-TV movie Mail to the Chief and appearing in the ghost story Believe, both in 2000, Elisha Cuthbert graduated from Centennial Regional High School. With all the success she had known, she was ready for an international career.

Elisha Cuthbert is one lucky girl
Nevertheless, Elisha shot one last Canadian film, a TV movie called Lucky Girl (2001). Her portrayal of Katlin Palmerston, a teenager who happens to be a compulsive gambler, was so riveting that it garnered her a Gemini Award (Canada's version of the Emmy) for Best Actress in a Leading Role in a Dramatic Program or Miniseries.

Armed with this award and an impressive resume, Elisha left Montreal for Los Angeles, where she gave herself six months to make it. On her second day, she found herself auditioning for the lead female part in Spider-Man (2002), a role that ultimately went to Kirsten Dunst.

24 hours of Elisha Cuthbert
But things were hard for Cuthbert and she wasn't landing any roles. As she was getting ready to return home, she was offered a part in fellow Canuck Kiefer Sutherland's new television series, 24. With all 24 episodes taking place in one day, this high-intensity drama was groundbreaking and became a huge hit.

Exposure on the FOX series garnered Cuthbert legions of fans. Like many Hollywood stars, she found herself dating celebrities. After spending more than a year with actor Andrew Keegan (former fiancé of country singer LeAnn Rimes), she moved on to Justin Timberlake's best friend and personal assistant, Trace Ayala. They've been together since May 2003.

Elisha is the girl next door
While 24 has become a commercial and critical hit (it won the Best Television Series -- Drama -- Golden Globe in 2004), Elisha also made time to appear as a mysterious one-night stand in Old School (2003) and as an American sex kitten in Love Actually (2003). Her next project, The Girl Next Door (2004), in which she plays a former porn star, is her first American leading role. In 2004, she also adds House of Wax to her resume.

Elisha engaged to Trace Ayala in June 2004.

In her next big-screen outing, Cuthbert starred with Paris Hilton and Chad Michael Murray in the 2005 remake of the classic horror film House of Wax. Cuthbert, along with the rest of her cast mates, was made up to look haggard and frightened. In one scene, her character was to attempt to open her mouth while her lips were sealed with glue. For the sake of realism, Cuthbert opted for real superglue over prosthetics.

The Quiet
Following House of Wax, Cuthbert became involved in her third project where she took on the duties of co-star and co-producer of the indie film The Quiet, contributing to its US$900,000 budget. She played Nina, a temperamental cheerleader who suffered from sexual abuse, while Camilla Belle played Dot, a brooding, deaf orphan girl adopted by Nina's family who became privy to their morbid secrets. Playing Nina disturbed Cuthbert, a role she described as "dark and heavy." Cuthbert studied her younger sister, Lee-Ann, to further understand the character. The Quiet premiered at the 2005 Toronto International Film Festival. It has yet to receive a wide release.

Perfect Situation (music video for Weezer)
Cuthbert appeared in the music video for Weezer's "Perfect Situation" in early 2006, where she played the group's fictional original singer who threw a tantrum that led to Rivers Cuomo, the unlikely roadie, becoming the frontman of the band.

She also reprised her role as Kim Bauer in 24: The Game.

Sometime in November, 2005, Ayala (Elisha's fiance) remarked, "Neither one of us is in a hurry to get married." Since then, she has reportedly been dating former L.A. King Sean Avery. The status of the engagement with Ayala remains uncertain.

Recent career
Presently, Cuthbert has been cast in three feature films. The first, Captivity, is a thriller centered around a fashion model and her chauffeur being taunted by a psychopath who has imprisoned them in a cellar. In He Was a Quiet Man, Cuthbert's character, Vanessa, will be a quadriplegic. The film will contain comedic and dramatic elements; the cast includes Christian Slater and William H. Macy. The third film, Cat Tale, is an animated film set in a civilized world of cats and dogs. Cuthbert will voice Cleo, "the feline daughter of a wealthy kitty litter baron." Cat Tale is scheduled for release in 2007 by Walt Disney Pictures. Reports indicated that Cuthbert would be collaborating with Babbit and Belle again in the upcoming comedy Itty Bitty Titty Committee; however, neither Cuthbert nor Belle are listed in the IMDb entry for the film.
