A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Birthplace:
Martinez, California, USA
Lauren was born in Martinez, California, just east of San Francisco. She has an older sister, Jenna, and her parents are Karen (Bell) and Scott Goll. Lauren began her acting career early, performing in community theater, and took a leave of absence from University, when to enroll at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. She returned to University to finish a degree in International Politics and Economic Development, however she quickly discovered she couldn't avoid her passion for acting. After moving to Boston in 2010, she decided to continue her work as an actress in the New England film industry. After working as a model and actress in commercial and industrial projects, she landed a role in her first feature film, Self Storage, out of Rhode Island. After her work in Self Storage, Lauren returned to California to live in Los Angeles.
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.
