Biography |
Emma Stone is an American actress and singer. She made her
feature film debut in 2007 with the comedy Superbad and
gained wide exposure in 2008's The Rocker and The House
Bunny.
Stone was born in Scottsdale, Arizona, the daughter of Jeff
and Krista Stone, and has a younger brother, Spencer. Stone
was a member of the Valley Youth Theatre while growing up, a
regional theater in Phoenix, Arizona where she appeared in
her first stage production, The Wind in the Willows, at the
age of 11. Stone attended Sequoya Elementary School and then
Cocopah Middle School for sixth grade. She was home schooled
for two years, at which time she appeared in 16 productions
at Valley Youth Theatre, including: A Winnie-the-Pooh
Christmas Tail, The Princess and the Pea, Cinderella, The
Wiz, Titanic, Honk!, The Little Mermaid, Schoolhouse Rock
Live!, Alice in Wonderland, and Joseph and the Amazing
Technicolor Dreamcoat, and performed with the theatre's
improv comedy troupe. She told Teen Vogue in a September
2008 interview that, since her mind "works in five-minute
increments," she connected to improvisational comedy.
Stone attended Xavier College Preparatory, an all-girl
Catholic high school, as a freshman for one semester. She
gave a PowerPoint presentation to her parents to convince
them to let her move to California for an acting career. She
moved with her mother to Los Angeles, California at age 15. |
