Aria Wallace

Aria Wallace was born on November 3, 1996 in Atlanta, Georgia. When Aria was only a year-and-a-half, she started showing signs of being a natural "ham." With her uninhibited personality and love for being the center of attention, performing seemed to be her destiny. A referral from a friend landed her at the John Robert Powers acting school. In July 2001, she attended the IMTA Convention in New York, where she won many awards in both acting and modeling. Soon after, at age four-and-a-half, Aria was signed by "Hot Shot Kids," an Atlanta-based talent agency. From an early age, Aria seemed to know what she wanted, and was willing to work at it. She wasn't content to simply 'play pretend,' but genuinely desired to make her characters believable, and would memorize entire scripts word for word. In January 2002, Aria and her family moved to Los Angeles, so she could pursue her dream of being an actress. Aria had been in LA less for only than a week when she signed with her agent at The Osbrink Talent Agency. Shortly after that,she landed her first job, a co-starring role on "The Bernie Mac Show." Her career was off and running, as she started to book numerous commercials and also auditioned for the pilot of the TV show, "Family Affair." Although she didn't get that role, she soon did book another pilot called "These Guys," written by Tim Allen (Home Improvement), Mark Brazill (That 70's Show), and Ron Zimmerman (7th Heaven). Aria has subsequently appeared on numerous TV shows, including "Carnivale," "Charmed," "That 70's Show," "Judging Amy," and "What Should You Do?" In the spring-summer of 2004, Aria booked and filmed her very first feature film, The Perfect Man which stars Heather Locklear and Hilary Duff. Aria plays Hilary's kid sister, Zoe. The film was released into theaters on June 17th, 2005. When she returned from filming, Aria has filmed guest spots on Strong Medicine, Bernie Mac, Desperate Housewives, and even appeared in a skit on Jay Leno. Her work on Strong Medicine even earned her a nomination for a Young Artist Award. During the recent pilot season, Aria booked the pilot, "The Untitled Diamond/Weissmon Project." Although the pilot wasn't picked up, Aria continues to shine! She recently (July 2005) booked and is filming an episode on CSI: New York.
