Elisha Cuthbert ('Danielle' in "The Girl Next Door") stars in the Emmy®-winning Fox series “24” as Kiefer Sutherland’s rebellious daughter, Kimberly Bauer. Her work in the series earned her a nomination as the 2002 Teen Choice Award for Breakout TV Actress. Last year, she and her “24” co-stars were nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award® for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series.

Cuthbert appeared in the hit comedy “Old School,” starring Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn and Will Ferrell, and in the romantic comedy “Love Actually,” directed by Richard Curtis.

Some of her other credits include “Time at the Top,” “Mail To The Chief,” “Airspeed” and “Believe.” She shed her good girl image in the television movie “Lucky Girl,” where her powerful performance as a student who becomes addicted to gambling earned her the Gemini, Canada’s equivalent to the Emmy, as Best Actress in a Dramatic Program.

Born in Canada, Cuthbert began as a model at the age of seven. She soon landed a recurring role in Nickelodeon’s series “Are You Afraid of the Dark?,” and she later became a correspondent for the award-winning series “Popular Mechanics For Kids.”

Birthplace: Alberta, Canada
Birthday: November 30, 1982
