This group is dedicated to the Lovely and Talented actress - Carla Gugino. She is of Italian, Irish and English descent and was born on August 29th, 1971 in Sarasota, FL. Carla's parents divorced when she was quite young and she would take turns living with her mother in California and then her father in Florida. Despite moving frequently as a child, Carla was a straight-A student and she even graduated first in her high school class. At age 15, she was discovered by the Elite modeling agency and they sent her to NYC to become a fashion model. She gave it a good try but wasn't crazy about the lifestyle and her height (a short but sweet 5'5") prevented her from doing runway work. Carla then decided to follow the advice of her famous aunt (Caroll Merill) and give acting lessons a try. It didn't take long for her to realize that this was what she really wanted to do with her life and she is now one of the best actresses working today. Her many tv appearances over the years have included: Spin City, Chicago Hope, Karen Sisco and Threshold. Her many movie appearances have included: Judas Kiss, Snake Eyes, Spy Kids and Night at the Museum. Currently she can be seen in the movie - Race to Witch Mountain. We are very dedicated fans of Carla and will be doing our best to show a good representation of her extensive television and film career in this group and we hope you all enjoy it. P.S.
