 Canadian
actress Mia Kirshner is known in her native country
and beyond for her portrayals of moderately to deeply
troubled young women who often harbor dark secrets.
Born in Toronto in 1976, where she was raised by
a journalist father and a teacher mother, Kirshner
broke into films in 1993. That year, she starred
as a bad seed teenager intent on seducing her mother's
boyfriend in Cadillac Girls and played a dominatrix
in Denys Arcand's Love and Human Remains.
Kirshner had another career breakthrough the following
year playing a young stripper with a surprising
past identity in Atom Egoyan's widely acclaimed
Exotica. The actress' work in the celebrated film
attracted the notice of American casting agents,
who promptly cast her in supporting roles in Murder
in the First (1995) and the Southern gothic coming-of-age
tale The Grass Harp (also 1995).
