Famous for Acting
Sacha Horler is an Australian actress. Her parents were lawyers, but co-founded Sydney's Nimrod Theatre Company in the early 1970s. In 1993, Sacha Horler graduated from Sydney's prestigious National Institute of Dramatic Arts and made her film debut two years later with a role in the music-themed comedy Billy's Holiday. In 1997, Horler was featured in the Australian produced drama Blackrock, and even appeared in the international hit Babe: Pig in the City the following year. Among her notable Sydney stage credits were featured roles in the one-act play collection Playgrounds (1996) and Harold Pinter's theater classic The Birthday Party (1997).

Next up for the actress was her breakthrough role in the gritty drama Praise, which featured several sobering sex scenes and a great deal of unromanticized nudity. Horler's follow-up supporting role in Soft Fruit was a more difficult role for the actress, as it required her to considerably gain weight for the role. That year, she also had a supporting turn in the drama My Mother Frank, starring as the married daughter of a widow (Sinéad Cusack) who returns to school after her children have grown. She also appeared in the TV series CrashBurn playing "Abby". Horler won two Australian Film Institute acting awards in 1999, winning Best Actress as a sexual obsessive in Praise, and Best Supporting Actress for her role in Soft Fruit.
