Mary-Kate Olsen, were born June 13, 1986 in Sherman Oaks,
California to David and Jarnette Olsen. The twins began their acting career in
1987 when they were chosen to play the role of Michelle Tanner on a new TV
series, "Full House" (1987). The show became a hit with books, dolls,
and other merchandise being sold to promote it, and during the years the show
was on the air, the Olsen twins had a TVQ (popularity rating) second only to
Bill Cosby
Always a versatile performer, able to switch between playing
the character of Ashley Burke in Two of a Kind to voicing the animated Amber,
in Mary-Kate and Ashley in Action! it's difficult to know who will fill the
gaping hole she leaves in Hollywood's casting books. Other than her sister,
obviously. And the other sister, who is doing quite well. She was in that
thing... what was it called? It was quite good.
Ashley Olsen, whose last film appearance was more than eight
years ago alongside her sister in "New York Minute," says of the
departure, "I wanted to work on other things. It doesn't mean I'm not
interested in Hollywood. I like the way it operates, I like the people who are
involved and the sense of possibility. But if I ever get back in, it's not
going to be as an actress … Now it's important and liberating to be on the
other side of the lens."
