Early Life and Education

Elizabeth grew up in Los Angeles amidst the culture and life within the entertainment industry as both of her parents worked as actors.

After matriculating, she realized her passion was for writing and reading, taking up a degree in Language in Literature at the New York-based school, Vassar College.

There she studied more about literature. and also expanded her knowledge of the language. She began speaking Spanish fluently, almost as well as her English.

Acting and Writing

As she grew up, Elizabeth was given the opportunity for small acting roles alongside her father. She had another sibling from her father’s first marriage and two half-siblings all of whom were encouraged to see their father at work. She remained in contact with her mother up until 2002, when she passed away from sickness.

Her first film appearance was in a small role in “Forrest Gump”, one of the films that help define her father’s career during the 1990s. This prompted her to try another appearance in the film “That Thing You Do!” which was her father’s directing debut, which tells the story of a fictional one-hit-wonder band – the film resulted in the creation of a one-hit-wonder of the same name as the film’s title.

She then moved away from acting for a long period, returning only for an appearance in the short film “Anchoraged”. In the meantime, she began writing a blog, expressing her opinion about a variety of issues.

Her experience and developed skills over the years led her to be hired by the online publication, Huffington Post, with which she stayed for some period, and then moved to the literary review journal, the Los Angeles Review of Books.
