Amber Tamblyn stars in "127 Hours," opposite James Franco, as Megan. Tamblyn also recently starred as Detective Casey Shraeger on ABC's "The Unusuals."
Amber Tamblyn was an experienced and stunning artist from an early age. Tamblyn started her professional career on "General Hospital" at the age of 11, for which she received the Hollywood Reporter Young Star Award for Best Actress in a Daytime Series two years in a row. Tamblyn starred for two seasons as the title character in "Joan of Arcadia," the CBS family drama on which she earned a 2004 Emmy nomination for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series, and which was nominated for Outstanding Drama Series. In its first season the series picked up the 2003 People's Choice Award for Best New Series and earned her a 2003 Golden Globe nomination for Best Dramatic Actress in a Drama Series.
Tamblyn appeared in Foresight Unlimited's present-day remake of the 1956 classic, "Beyond a Reasonable Doubt," opposite Michael Douglas and written and directed by Peter Hyams. Tamblyn was also seen in "Spring Breakdown," which made its debut at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival, co-starring Parker Posey, Amy Poehler and Rachel Dratch. She starred in Warner Bros.' "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2," reprising her role as Tibby, and in Regent Films' "Stephanie Daley," for which she received a 2007 Independent Spirit Best Supporting Female Actress nomination. "Stephanie Daley," written and directed by Hilary Brougher, premiered at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival (Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award) and went on to the 2006 Locarno International Film Festival (Golden Bronze Leopard Best Actress Award for Tamblyn) and the 2006 Milan International Film Festival (Best Director Award). Amber Tamblyn also starred in the telepic "The Russell Girl" with Tony Award-winning actress Jennifer Ehle. Other film credits for Tamblyn include the independent thriller "Blackout," directed by Mexican sensation Rigoberto Castaneda, Gore Verbinski's "The Ring," Takashi Shimizu's "The Grudge 2" and Wim Wenders' "10 Minutes Older."
Tamblyn is a critically-acclaimed writer. Her first published poem appeared in The San Francisco Chronicle at the age of 12. At ages 14 and 17, Tamblyn self-published two chapter book collections of poetry, art and photography entitled "Plenty of Ships" and "Of the Dawn." In 2006 she signed with Simon & Schuster to release her full-length book of poetry, "Free Stallion," which San Francisco Poet Laureate Jack Hirschman called "A fine, fruitful gestation of throbbingly nascent sexuality, awakened in young new language." Tamblyn's work has been published in New York Quarterly Magazine, New York Magazine, LA Weekly, Writers and Poets, Cosmo, Teen Vogue and Interview Magazine. She hosts a private writers' forum online for some 200,000 aspiring teen and young adult writers, and is co-founder of The Best Contemporary American Poets Series, a biannual event showcasing performance artists from a Pulitzer Prize nominee to an Slam poet champion. Tamblyn has also contributed articles to Jane and Interview magazines and is currently a writer for Nylon Magazine.
Tamblyn was born and raised in Los Angeles.
