FEBRUARY 2005
Lauren Michelle Hill owes her start to her modeling agency owner mother, who raised Lauren and her siblings to balance a modeling and acting career with a healthy personal lite in their Columbia, South Carolina home. Even Lauren's cat got his chance in front of the camera, appearing in the movie “That Darń Cat”. Lauren modeled clothes for department storę catalogs and posed for art on Hasbro toy boxes during her younger years, and attracted the eyes of film producers as a teenager, in hair care advertisements. She has sińce been featured in the movie "Heavyweights" with Ben Stiller and on the television series "Baywatch." But don't let this model history fool you, Lauren Michelle Hill is a sports fan at heart - this USC journalism major and cheerleader grew up watching sports all the time. Her passion for sports instilled a fervent drive in her - "You're out there to win, giving all for yourself and the team."
