A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Birthplace:

Born:
April 10, 1989
Amber Perkins was born on April 10th, 1989 to a single parent in Panorama City, Ca,. Growing up and always hoping to be a singer or actress, she began acting in school plays at the age of seven and started calling agents by herself at the age of ten. Finally, she got a break when she was handed a flyer in high school for an audition to be in an acting class outside of school. Amber ran with the opportunity and it proved to be a smart choice. She earned a spot in the class and landed an agent about a year later. Slowly she started doing background work for various television shows, movies and commercials. Eventually she was auditioning for co-starring and leading parts, but with very little success. Finally- the audition that would change everything . "Megan is Missing". A fter a couple of grueling callbacks and a lot of waiting time, she found out she won the role of Amy Herman. Amber continues to pursue her acting career, continuing to do what she’s loved since the age of 7.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
