Alison Marion Lohman was born on September 18, 1979 in Palm Springs, California.

At 9 Alison Lohman had her first professional, theatrical role as Gretyl in "The Sound of Music" performed at the Palm Desert's McCallum Theater. By 11, Alison won the Desert Theater League's award for "Most Outstanding Actress in a Musical" for the title role in "Annie" (1990).

Alison Lohman is an accomplished singer; she performed as a featured solo vocalist for Frank Sinatra, Bob Hope, and the Desert Symphony.

In her early 20s Alison Lohman began to turn heads with her cinematic roles such as the troubled teen in 2002's "White Oldeander" starring alongside Michelle Pfeiffer. In 2004 Lohman wowed audiences with her rendition of a 14 year old girl in "Matchstick Men" (2003) starring opposite Nicholas Cage, and again as Sandra Bloom in "Big Fish".

Recently Lohman appeared in "The Big White" (2005) and "Where the Truth Lies"(2005). At such a young age, with such talent and spark, it's assured we haven't seen the best of Lohman yet.
