Piper Perabo

After high school ended, Piper headed off to Ohio University, where she studied acting. She graduated in 1998 with a BFA in acting. She took off to New York, where she was going to try and make it as an actress. Her career was slow to start, so Piper, had to start working at a bar to make ends meet. Meanwhile, she was working and studying at the LaMama Theatre right in the city. She grabbed a couple of roles in low-budget films, but nothing noteworth. Low budget films are nothing like the real thing.

Piper's first big role was the lead female part in the film Whiteboyz (1999) in which she played the girlfriend of wannabe gangster rapper. That role will pale in comparison to the big break she had when she was cast in the role of Violet in the big budget Hollywood film, Coyote Ugly, a film whose plot sounds a lot like Piper's own life moved from New Jersey to New York and worked in a bar while waiting for a big break. Piper appears in the recent release "Rocky & Bullwinkle" and is already busy with her next role in the film Lost & Delirious which is currently being filmed in Canada. The summer of 2000 may forever be remembered as Piper Perabo freakout season. With a prominent role in the animation meets reality flick, Rocky and Bullwinkle Perabo seems primed to seize the limelight. Perabo has already demonstrated a taste for unconventional films, which makes her blossoming career all the more exciting to watch, who knows what she'll do next.
