Andrea Hope Elson's journey into the world of acting began at the tender age of eleven, when she took center stage as the lead in a sixth grade production of the beloved classic, "Alice in Wonderland".
Born on March 6, 1969, in the vibrant city of New York, this stunning green-eyed actress was raised on the road, thanks to her father's career in advertising. By the time she was just a few years old, she had already called New York, Chicago, San Diego, and Los Angeles home. During her time in San Diego, Andrea landed her first agent and secured her first role through an audition, which was for a commercial. This marked the beginning of a string of acting jobs that would follow her throughout her career.
Before long, Andrea found herself landing guest-starring roles on popular TV shows such as "Simon & Simon" (1981),"Silver Spoons" (1982),and a co-starring part in the series "Whiz Kids" (1983).
Andrea's breakthrough role came when she auditioned and won the part of Lynn Tanner on the hit TV series "ALF" (1986). She continued to work on various hit TV shows and Movies of the Week throughout her career, before eventually leaving the entertainment industry to focus on raising her family.
