Genevieve Buechner, a talented individual, was born on November 10, 1991, at 2:30 A.M., during a treacherous snowstorm in Edmonton. Her mother, Tea Buechner, a single parent, was initially reluctant to encourage Genevieve's interest in acting, which began when she was just three years old.
Despite her mother's reservations, Genevieve persevered, and at the age of three, she started pestering her mother about taking acting lessons. Her mother eventually relented, allowing Genevieve to take a small course in acting from the local theatre, Vancouver Youth Theatre.
After completing the course, Genevieve asked if she could audition for the youth theatre's acting tour. Her mother initially refused, citing Genevieve's lack of experience, but the director of the tour called their home, demanding to know why Genevieve hadn't attended the audition. A special audition was arranged for the next day, and Genevieve was selected as the youngest member of the cast.
During the tour performances, Genevieve was scouted by Robert Carrier and signed to Carrier Talent Management in Vancouver, Canada. A week later, she was sent to audition for the lead role in a Toronto independent film called St. Monica. Despite being unprepared, Genevieve was cast in the lead role at the age of ten, making it her first film audition. The film went on to be a festival success, playing across North America and being selected for several prominent film festivals.
Genevieve's breakthrough role earned her a nomination for a Canadian Leo Award for Best Lead Performance by a Female in 2003. Since then, she has been cast in feature films, lead roles in made-for-TV movies, and has had recurring roles in television series, including the Battlestar spin-off "Caprica" as Tamara Adams.
Throughout her career, Genevieve has been a strong supporter of independent films and has continued to make a name for herself in the entertainment industry.
