Isla Fisher Pictures

Isla Fisher (born 3 February, 1976) is an actress who grew up in Australia, after her family moved there in the early 1980s. She was born in Oman of Scottish parents, and early in her life Ms Fisher showed an interest in both acting and writing.

At nine-years-old she was chosen to appear in Australian TV commercials, which led to a small part in the Australian TV series "Bay Cove". Following this, she appeared in the series "Paradise Beach". When that program finished production, she secured a role in the long-running Australian soap opera "Home and Away". While working on that series she was able to further another of her interests - writing. She has since published two best-selling novels, "Seduced By Fame" and "Bewitched".

Since leaving Australia, she has appeared in several moderately successful movies, including "Wedding Crashers", but she is now on the verge of the big time as she takes on the role of Rebecca Bloomwood in the soon to be released "Confessions of a Shopaholic", based on the novel by Sophie Kinsella.
