Emma Watson is a young actress and model, born on April 15, 1990, in Paris, France, who has gone from a little girl acting in school plays to one of the most well-known names of our generation. She's 22 years old, and lives in Oxfordshire, England with her parents and brother, though she's often traveling for roles in movies. Ever since she was six years old she has wanted to be an actress, and three years later she was cast as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films after studying hard at a part-time theater school, Stagecoach Theater Arts. Since her debut in 2001, she has been in all eight Harry Potter movies, a BBC film named Ballet Shoes, voiced the part of Princess Pea in A Tale of Despereaux, played a smaller part in My Week With Marilyn, was cast as the lead in The Perks of Being a Wallflower, and has also been cast in two musicals, Noah and Beauty and the Beast. She also modelled for Burberry and Lancome. Although her acting career is incredibly successful in itself, she's made a name for herself outside of being just another celebrity.
