Amy Adams Amy Adams, who grew up in a Mormon household in Castle Rock, Colo., the middle child of seven.

Amy Adams was raised Mormon until she was 11, when her parents divorced.  She never practiced after that.

Fast-forward to today and Adams, 33, is a Hollywood princess - literally. She plays an animated Disney princess who comes to life in "Enchanted.
Some of that curiosity comes from her Mormon upbringing. But it also mirrors Adams' own quest for balance and fulfillment - balancing her private, personal life with her public, professional one. www.komotv.com

Edwina Booth Edwina Booth was an actress in the 1930's.  Her real name was Constance Woodruff, great grand daughter of President Wilford Woodruff.   She was a virtual unknown when MGM chose her for the female lead in the early talkie adventure film "Trader Horn" (1931). While shooting that film on location in Africa, Booth suffered heatstroke and numerous tropical maladies that left her disabled for years. In a highly publicized lawsuit she accused MGM of reckless endangerment but ultimately settled for a paltry $45,000. After three minor roles in B pictures, Booth never worked in films again. (bio by: Robert Edwards)
