Bio:
Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson was born in Oxford, Oxfordshire,
England on April 15, 1990. She is the
daughter of Chris and Jacqueline Watson,
both of them are lawyers. They got a divorce while Emma�s little brother Alex
was still a toddler. While she was young Emma attended The Dragon School which
is a very popular preparatory school in Oxford. In 2003 she was attending the
Headington School which is also located in Oxford.
Before appearing in the Harry Potter films her acting experience
was limited to the plays she was in while attending school, including Arthur:
The Young Years as well as The Happy Prince. She was also a part of the Daisy
Pratt Poetry Competition and at only age seven she placed first for her
year.
Emma was cast to play as Hermione Granger for Harry Potter and The
Sorcerer�s Stone at only age 10 and was 11 upon its release in 2001. She has
also appeared in all of the following Harry Potter films to date: Harry Potter
and The Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban, and Harry
Potter and The Goblet of Fire.
There have been doubts about Emma being a good fit for the part of
Hermione with fans saying she is �too pretty� for it due to J.K. Rowling�s
saying that Hermione is �plain� (not ugly or pretty).
At the age of fifteen she was the youngest actress to appear on the cover of Teen Vogue magazine. She has also served jury duty along with Pierce Brosnan, Kenneth Branagh and Samantha Morton, to select the 2004 teenaged filmmakers "First Light Film Award" ceremony in Leicester Square in London.
In February of 06 she began the principal photography on Harry potter and The Order of The Phoenix where she reprises her role as �The brightest witch of her age�
She is quite fond of sports, enjoying Field Hockey, Tennis and Rounders (an
early form of baseball and softball). Though her career in acting consists of
only the Harry Potter films, she has expressed an interest in broadening her
film career into other works.
