Ginger of the Week

Evan Rachel Wood was born in North Carolina to actor parents. She began her career in plays (some even directed by her father). She soon landed several small roles in a few made-for-television-movies and appeared in the show "American Gothic". She landed a recurring role on the Sela Ward show, "Once and Again". From there she was cast in films like, "Practical Magic", "Little Secrets", and "Simone", but it was her lead role in the edgy flick "Thirteen" that garnered her a bit of fame. She was nominated for a Golden Globe and SAG award. After that she landed lead roles in "The Upside of Anger", "Pretty Persuasions", "Running with Scissors", "Across the Universe", and a recurring role as the Vampire Queen in "True Blood". Next up: "Mildred Pierce" (with Kate Winslet and Melissa Leo), "The Conspirator" (with Robin Wright and James McAvoy), and "The Ides of March" (with Ryan Gosling, Marisa Tomei, and George Clooney).
