Haley Ramm must have been in quite a hurry to start living because her entrance into this world came five weeks early. At age three she started dancing in local studios, and by the time she was seven she was choreographing her own freestyle dances at school talent shows. Her love of center stage led to enrollment in acting classes and, at the recommendation of a teacher, her parents began looking for an agent.
Almost immediately she signed an agency contract and she began auditioning for commercials and independent films in and around Texas. She loves to break down a character and, whether it was for a commercial or film role, her sharp acting skills and ease in front of casting directors got her noticed. National commercials and print work for Hasbro and Dell Computers were booked right away, followed by roles in short films and independent features like the thriller Seventy-8 (2004), which premiered at the Hollywood Film Festival.
Acting was a blast for Haley and her family was extremely supportive. Because Texas has a small commercial and film industry, the auditions were few and far between and barely caused a ripple in the family's schedule. Between bookings and auditions Haley had time to perform with a local dance group and attend acting classes and workshops. Always close to Max, her older brother, she spent much of her spare time at his hockey games.
