Beautiful actress and cover model Amy Weber has shown tremendous versatility in her many on-screen roles, which comes from her years of hard work, study of her craft, and natural talent.
Amy was born in Peoria, Illinois and was raised in a small town right outside of Peoria called Mapleton. She went to school there until high school, when her parents relocated to Ocala, Florida just before her freshman year. There she attended Lake Weir High School, where she was a varsity track and cross country athlete as well as a cheerleader.
Amy was a foreign exchange student in Canada for part of her junior year. She was also active with the student body, as well as in speech and debate class.
“That really comes in handy these days,” Amy asserts, alluding to her numerous on-camera roles as an actress, host, and spokesperson.
Amy has always loved the outdoors. She raced motorcycles as a teenager and spent many hours with animals of all shapes and sizes.
“I have always brought home stray animals - everything from squirrels to wild rabbits to foxes and turtles,” she says, “I thought that I could save them all!”
After attending college as a psychology major at the University of Central Florida in Orlando, Amy grew restless and decided to quit school, move to Los Angeles, and become an actress.
Discovered shortly after she arrived in Southern California, Amy's ability as a model immediately landed her numerous print ads and television commercials including work for the Miller Brewing Co. and Nestea.
Amy's easygoing nature and toned physique have led to a number of television roles. Her recurring role on the ABC soap “Port Charles” helped launch her acting career. She has appeared on “Melrose Place”, “High Tide” and the daytime soap “The Young and the Restless”, as well as on “Silk Stalkings”, “Nightstand”, “Pacific Blue”, and “USA High”. She has also appeared on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno”. Amy has also acted in a number of independent films - most recently “Art House”, in which she had a starring role opposite MTV's Chris Hardwick.
In early 2001 Amy landed a role as the co-host of an exciting new reality-based adventure show called “Getaway”, the pilot for which aired on UPN February 23 to a strong audience. She has also shot a pilot for a fun new series called "Spa Adventures," which is being shopped around Hollywood, and she recently starred in "18 Wheels of Justice" on UPN. Her first-ever calendar is being published for 2002, which is sure to be a big seller.
While her career as a bikini model is in full swing, Amy's passion is acting. At the same time, she is also taking voice lessons with plans to cut an R&B album one day.
