Biography

change

Hailee Steinfeld was born in Tarzana, Los Angeles. Her mother is Cheri (née Domasin), an interior designer. Her father is Peter Steinfeld, a personal fitness trainer.[1][2][3] Her father is Jewish[4][5] and her mother is of African American, English, Filipino, Irish, Scottish and German descent. Her maternal grandfather, Ricardo Domasin is a Filipino, from Bohol, Philippines. Her older brother, Griffin,[2] is a stock car driver. Steinfeld calls him her best friend on some of her Tweets.[6][7] She was raised in Agoura Hills and in Thousand Oaks, California.[2][8] She attended Ascension Lutheran School, Conejo Elementary, and Colina Middle School. She has been home-schooled since 2008, because of bullying.[9][10]

Hailee Steinfeld started acting when she was ten years old, appearing in various short films, like the role of Talia Alden in "She's a Fox." She also had several appearances in TV shows and commercials. At the age of thirteen, she was chosen to play Mattie Ross in the Coen brothers' western movie "True Grit," which was released in December 2010. Her performance was praised by critics, with Richard Corliss from Time magazine calling it one of the top 10 film performances of 2010. He noted that Steinfeld delivered her lines naturally, portrayed the character convincingly, and won the hearts of the audience. Roger Ebert, the Los Angeles Times, and Rolling Stone also gave positive reviews of her performance. This role earned Hailee Steinfeld an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress in 2011. Just five months after "True Grit" was released, she was chosen as the new face of the Italian designer brand Miu Miu.[11]
