Laura
Prepon has been praised for her honest portrayal

television debut. She's received critical acclaim
for her performance and Entertainment Weekly calls
her a "rising star" and "wonderfully
deadpan."

a young age and she started studying the craft
at 15. She went on to study theatre at the Total
Theatre Lab in New York. Prepon has always loved

sports enthusiast and played tennis on her high
school team. In addition, s he enjoys
gymnastics and riding horses.
During her hiatus from That '70s Show, Prepon

A Love Story. Co-starring with Martin Donavan,
Kathleen Chalfant and Irene Jacob, the film tells
the story of an obsessive relationship between
a director and an actress. Another movie she appears
in, Slackers, is a film about that all too common
collegiate lifestyle of slacking; ie, not doing
what you're there for. Other members of the cast
of Slackers include: Jason Schwartzman, Devon
Sawa, and James King. Another of Laura's feature
credits include the indy feature Southlander.
