Birth: 9 August 1978

Born on August 9, 1978 in Beaumont, France, Audrey showed an interest for
comedy at an early age and started her acting lessons at `Cours Florent'.
In 1998 she won the best young actress award in the ninth `Jeune Comedien
de Cinema Festival' in Bezier. Then, she came to the attention of Tonie Marshall
who gave her a role in her film Vénus beauté (institut) (1999) for which she
won a Best New Actress Cesar. It came as a surprise to even Audrey:
"I was so certain I could not be chosen that I told her that she probably
dialled a wrong number." The director chose her for her natural nature:
"She came, she gaffed, she turned reddish, her ears were in a funny position
and her hair was relaxed. In five minutes, she gave me the heart of the character,
a petite young girl who would like to be a lady and will become a woman."
In 2000, Audrey was again nominated for a Cesar and her movie Fabuleux
destin d'Amélie Poulain, Le (2001) has been a phenomenal success worldwide.
