Welcome to the Sarah Polley Fan Club, devoted to actress/writer/director/activist Sarah Polley. She's a two-time Gemini winner, a four-time Genie winner, and the 2008 Claude Jutra Award winner, who from Road to Avonlea to The Sweet Hereafter (her breakthrough role) to My Life Without Me has captivated many fans. Recently starring in the remake of the George Romero horror classic Dawn of the Dead and psychological thriller The I Inside (both available on DVD), she's not just an actress, but also a writer and director of four short films, as well as a political activist (she is affiliated with Canada's NDP). Sarah's feature film directorial debut, Away from Her, hit theatres in May 2007 to much acclaim, and is available on DVD now. Next up for Sarah are the feature films Mr. Nobody (due out in 2008) and Splice (due out in 2009), and the seven-part miniseries John Adams (to air on HBO starting March 16, 2008).

So pull up a chair, grab your favourite beverage, and celebrate the many facets that make up the gal we love, Sarah Polley.
