Full Poppy Montgomery Biography
Poppy Petal Ema Elizabeth Deveraux Donahue (born 19 June 1972 in Sydney, New South Wales) is an Australian actress.
Her brother is named Jethro Tull, after Jethro Tull. Her sisters are named Rosie Thorn, Daisy Yellow, Lily Belle and Marigold Sun - all named after flowers, as Poppy is. She has stated the reason for her siblings interesting names was that her parents "were big hippies."
She chose her mother's maiden name, Montgomery, as her stage name. She left Australia at 16 to be with her then-boyfriend. They broke up, and she arrived in Hollywood at 18 carrying a copy of How to Make It In Hollywood.
She currently stars as Samantha Spade in the American television series Without a Trace. Montgomery was the "cover girl" for the May 2005 Stuff, which labelled her "TV's Hottest Cop." She has also appeared in Maxim, FHM and posed nude in the art magazine Black+White.
Montgomery was praised for her portrayal of Marilyn Monroe in the 2001 CBS mini-series Blonde, based on the novel by Joyce Carol Oates. She quit practicing yoga and gained 12 pounds to emulate Marilyn Monroe's ample figure for the role.
Montgomery is dating and living with boyfriend Adam Kaufman, her co-star in the independent film Between. In June 2007, Montgomery announced her pregnancy with Kaufman, the baby being due in December; later that same month she accidentally revealed on Nine Network's Today that she was expecting a boy. |
