From the minute she entered the world, Farrah Christine Halloway was a woman who refused to go unnoticed. A good thing, too, considering she was the third (and final) child to be welcomed into the Halloway family. Youngest and only daughter to Mitch and Bethany Halloway, she followed behind twin brothers Matthew and Michael, four years her senior. It was a pretty normal childhood for young Farrah, growing up in Baltimore, Maryland. With friends and school and all the sorts of activities that kept little girls occupied. But Farrah was not satisfied with that. Even at the young age of four, she knew that she wanted to be a star. Her mother wasn't too keen about her only daughter growing up in the public eye but it was hard to convince Farrah to change her mind. They came to a compromise, they would wait till Farrah's twelfth birthday before making any decisions about a future in acting.

Tweleve came almost too quickly but the years following up to that fateful day were filled with school, sports and being a normal child. Satisfied that Farrah was able to get a taste of what it was to be a real kid without any interference from the spotlight, mother and daughter moved from Baltimore and relocated in New York for the summer. It was there that Farrah had found an agent and had booked a few modeling ads for GAP and snagged a few auditions and roles in smaller television shows.


It was at the end 0f 1992 when Farrah got her break on television. The call came in on a rainy, Sunday afternoon from her agent. He said that there was an audition for a new show and they needed a someone about the age of 12 to play an eccentric little girl with big dreams of saving the world. He warned that there would be others who would be at the audition with more experience than Farrah, but that didn't scare the young starlet to be. She and her mother flew out to California for the auditions and after the first meeting, everyone on the crew agreed, Farrah was just the girl they were looking for. Boy Meets World began shooting shortly after she was cast for the role.

Other offers began to roll in. 2001's Legally Blonde landed her yet again in a lead role as a girl who was determined to take over the world and paint it pink. The movie was an instant hit, and everyone wanted a little bit more of Elle and Farrah. It was then that Farrah began thinking about finishing school and going to college. Splitting her time between Boy Meets World and filming for Legally Blonde 2..., she finished high school and started college. Graduating in 2005 with a degree in performance art, she jumped right back into acting when offered the role of Kitty Bennet in the classic, Pride & Prejudice. Movies offers quickly began to roll in and before she knew it, her star was quickly rising.

Now at 27 years old, Farrah has finally achieved what she has always wanted to be: a star. Soon to be seen in the 2008 release of Stardust, Farrah has kept herself busy on the big and small screen. A current cast member on the hit tv show How I Met Your Mother, Farrah plays the sweet, funny, commitment-phobe news anchor Robin Scherbatsky. Farrah currently splits her time as evenly as possible between her cozy apartment in New York and her townhouse in Los Angeles but she still claims Baltimore as her home.
