Amanda Plummer Picture

Amanda Plummer Picture Amanda as a young child, frequently accompanied her mother at the theaters in which her mother appeared, occasionally appearing on stage in a small part. Amanda grew up as a tomboy, mostly in New York City, living with her mother and their pets, but spent much time at her mother's parent's home in Lynn, Mass. Her early education though, was in New York City at L'ecole Francais and United Nations High School. She often fantacized as a young girl about being someone else. Her parents expected her to become either a writer, a vet or even a jockey because of her love for horses and taking care of them. At the age of 14, Amanda had passed up an audition at the Belmont track, to ride for Alfred Vanderbilt stables, and she has reflected on that time as the greatest years of her life. Amanda was active in track and field, and turned down an invitation to participate in the the relays in the Olympics when she was a teen-ager. However, she decided at 17 to follow in her parents footsteps in acting. Amanda is fond of writing and reading books. Her favorite authors are Ibsen, Faulkner, Artaud, Tennessee Williams, Sam Shepard and Athol Fugard. Her live-in mate for several years was the English Director/Writer, Paul Chart, followed by a relationship with the horror film Director, Tobe Hooper. ENTER HERE
