ALI LARTER

Alison Gertrude Larter was born February 28, 1976, in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. Ali Larter and her sister Kristen both enjoyed a stable upbringing, and there was little to distinguish the young Ali from other children her age, beyond her remarkable beauty. By age 13, Ali embarked on what would evolve into a fairly successful modeling career under the tutelage of the world-renowned Ford Modeling Agency. It was thus that a portion of Larter's teenage years came to be spent in various locales, being whisked from one photo shoot to another. At 17, Ali's profession brought her to Japan, where Ali Larter settled temporarily. Ali's homecoming to New Jersey proved a transient one, and at 19 Ali Larter was on the road again, accompanying a boyfriend in his move to Los Angeles. While the boyfriend wouldn't last long, Ali's new home would, and, after taking a brief sojourn in Australia (to put some time and space between her and her ex), Ali Larter set up camp on the West Coast. On the advice of a friend, Larter began taking acting classes, and was soon appearing in stage productions of Fine Line and Key Exchange.
