| Biography of Miranda Otto |
Otto was born in Brisbane, Queensland, to stage and film actor Barry Otto and former actress Lindsay Otto (who retired from acting upon Otto's birth). Gracie Otto, Miranda's half-sister, is also an actress.[1] Otto was raised in Newcastle and Brisbane, and briefly resided in Hong Kong following her parents' separation in 1973.[2] She spent weekends and holidays with her father in Sydney and developed an interest in acting through him.[3]
In her childhood, Otto and her friends wrote scripts and designed costumes and flyers in their spare time.[4] She appeared in several plays at the Nimrod Theatre, which attracted the attention of casting director Faith Martin. Subsequently, Otto received a role in the 1986 World War II drama Emma's War.[3] As a teenager, Otto excelled in academics and in ballet, which she considered as a career option. However, she had to abandon this goal due to moderate scoliosis.[2] Otto graduated from the National Institute of Dramatic Art in Sydney in 1990.[5] Prior to graduation, she appeared in minor film roles including Initiation (1987) and The 13th Floor (1988).[6] |
