Early life: Chabert was born in Purvis,

French-speaking Cajun from Louisiana. She has a brother,
T.J., and two sisters, Wendy and Crissy; as well as a
dog, Abu.
Career: Chabert made her start as Cosette in Les
Misérables on Broadway. Chabert was a member of the
Broadway Kids which included Christy Carlson Romano,
Chris Trousdale, and Greg Raposo. She was originally
selected to play the role of "Young Lily" in
the movie Return to the Blue Lagoon (1991), but bailed
out for unknown reasons. Chabert became famous worldwide
for her role as Claudia Salinger in the TV drama Party
of Five, "I had to go through everything on that
show—my first kiss, my first bra. I was 11 when it
started," she said. She also gained fame for her
portrayal of Penny Robinson in the 1998 movie based on
the 1960s TV show Lost in Space.
Since 1998, she has been the voice of Eliza Thornberry
in the animated series The Wild Thornberrys; she also
voiced Eliza in two Wild Thornberrys movies, The Wild
Thornberrys Movie (2002) and Rugrats Go Wild! (2003).
She also provided the voice of Meg Griffin for the first
production season of the animated sitcom Family Guy
(1999), after which Mila Kunis took over the role.
Chabert also had a role in The Brooke Ellison Story, a
made-for-TV movie produced by Christopher Reeve, in
which she played Brooke Ellison, based upon a real-life
quadriplegic woman who overcame many obstacles to
graduate from Harvard. She also starred in Daddy Day

Chabert won the 2005 MTV Movie Award for Best On-Screen

McAdams, and Amanda Seyfried. She won both the 1997 and
1998 Hollywood Reporter's Annual YoungStar Award for
Best Performance by a Young Actress in a Drama TV Series
for Party of Five, and had been nominated three other
times for work 1999-2000. The YoungStar awards honor the
best film, TV and music performances made exclusively by
6 to 18 year olds and are voted on by the Hollywood
Reporter readers. Chabert was featured as cover girl of
the January 2007 issue of Maxim.
A TV star with Broadway and animation voice work
experience, Lacey Chabert finally made her movie debut
on-camera in the big screen version of Lost in Space
(1998). Born in Purvis, MS, Chabert began performing as
a small child, learning how to play the violin and piano
as well as sing and act. After playing the young Cosette
in the Broadway production of +Les Miserables for two
years and appearing on the TV daytime serial All My
Children, Chabert became a prime-time star playing one
of the beleaguered Salinger family members on the Fox
drama Party of Five (1995-2000). As the precocious
youngest daughter Claudia, Chabert aged from child
violin prodigy to grounded, if occasionally confused,
teen before the show ended its run.
While working on Party of Five, Chabert lent her voice
to the animated movies Anastasia (1997) and An American
Tail III: Treasure of Manhattan Island (1998). Chabert
gained further notice as difficult daughter Penny
Robinson in the big-screen Space, but the film was not
quite the blockbuster it was expected to be. The lack of
positive reviews did little to slow the actresses career
though, as she continued to do frequent voice work (The
Wild Thornberries Movie (2002) and Rugrats Go Wild!
(2003)), as well as showing her face again in Not
Another Teen Movie and Hometown Legend (both 2001).
After climbing the credits as a tormenting teen in the
2004 comedy Mean Girls, Chabert would next dive headlong
into a night of playful teen mischief in the 2004 teen
comedy Dirty Deeds.
Personal life: Chabert lives in Southern
California, where she moved with her family in 1994 when
she began work on Party of Five. In 1998 she stated,
"Yes, I am a Christian. Jesus is the center of my
life and I give God the glory for everything, for all my
success".
