Tina Anne
When Anne's parents mail-ordered a child from Korea, they expected a timid, shy, well-behaved little girl who would marry young and raise a small family. To date, she continues to prove she will do anything but settle down...or quiet down. To date, Anne, who lives on Chicago's north side, has been thrown out of twenty libraries for raising her voice; six furniture companies for removing the tag under her couches, and two dentists' offices for brushing her teeth side to side.
Anne settled upon becoming an actress after trying her hand at auto mechanics, music, teaching, outdoor educaion and veterinary medicine. "It got so boring after a while," she said. "Who wants to help dumb animals and city kids? Now I get to be thrown out of buildings just like in college, only now I'm paid for it." Anne was particularly attracted by the fighting scenes Craig Long and Chris Tso offered her. "They were giving the girl a chance to kick all the guys' asses," she said. "I couldn't figure it out until we all did our first fight scene. Everybody else was out of shape and could only do twenty minutes at a time. It made it hard to make them look good. God, they're pathetic. They can't even do a girly pushup."
Anne does not plan to stay in the movie profession, preferring to work on film soundtracks. She collaborated with Chris Dewey for the Thursdays at Dooley's score and is now working on Dewey's solo project, There But for a Beer Go I. She has an album out herself, titled It's All Beans and Rice, Baby. After that, she has signed on with Samuel L. Bronkowitz to do a trilogy of children's movies, titled Down on the Farm, where she will play the gerbil Ruttiger. "I'm doing it for the kids," she said, rolling her eyes.
