Biography:
Actress Rooney Mara didn't exactly come from a show business family. Her great-grandfather founded the Pittsburgh Steelers, her grandfather ran the Yonkers Raceway, and her father was vice president of player evaluations for the New York Giants. Despite her heritage, Mara opted to go into acting instead of sports, and made her professional debut at the age of 16 with a bit-part in the direct-to-video Urban_Legends:_Bloody_Mary. She followed this with a handful of appearances on episodes of shows like Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and The_Cleaner, eventually scoring a number of film roles, appearing in 2009's Tanner Hall, Youth in Revolt, and Friends (With Benefits).

On her prom dress:“For my prom I really wanted to wear a bright color — something that was going to pop and stand out. [You have to think about] how you are going to shine in your photo and how you’re going to look different."
On her prom splurge: "I bought nice, crystal shoes — you have to get something that makes you really excited. It doesn't have to be expensive, but I really did feel like a princess putting my shoes on!"
