March 27th, 2008 - Article about former room mate, Tricia Ridgway Category: General |
Posted by April
I found this article on Alison's former room mate and childhood friend, Tricia Ridgway (we have a photo of them both in the gallery here), it doesnt say much about Alison but gives some dates/years on Alison's earlier career. Here are the highlights:
"We were doing COD shows like 'Annie' and 'Music Man,' 'Wizard of Oz' - all these great kid shows where you become really bonded with these people," Ridgway recalled. "Alison and me, it almost brought us closer together - that mutual respect we had for each other. We each lost roles to each other and it taught us so much about the business."
Ridgway's mother opened an ice cream parlor in Palm Desert and Tricia invited her show-biz friends to perform on a tiny stage that became the desert's premier talent showcase.
"David Reuther was one of Broadway Joy's lead Singsations, along with Michael Criste and Alison (Lohman), Aubrey (O'Day), Allison Jones and Hayley Erin," Ridgway said. "(It was) a place to hone your craft. Everybody just really took to it."
When she moved to Los Angeles with Lohman, agents began directing her to a film and TV career.
Trisha on Alison Lohman: “We went our separate ways maybe three years ago. Obviously her career has taken off and she’s traveling and just consumed with what she does. She was filming a show in Vancouver (“Matchstick Men”), she had a boyfriend from there, so that’s when the distance started to take precedent. It was not a falling out. I wish her all the best.
The article also features a timeline and here are the dates that comes into play with Alison:
1990: Appears as orphan Pepper with Alison Lohman, and Aubrey O' Day in College of the Desert production of “Annie” [Alison was Annie]
1992: Draws raves with Korman and Lohman in local talent show, “Youthquake,” singing “Nothing” from “A Chorus Line”
1997: Wins 10-week karaoke contest at Casino Morongo, earning $1,000, a guest spot with the Frankie Randall-Pat Rizzo Orchestra and an eight-day trip to Hawaii, which she takes with Alison Lohman.
1999: Moves into an L.A. apartment with Alison Lohman
There are some trivia bits about Alison's earlier career! :)

March 3rd, 2008 - Lohman finds a place in 'Hell' Category: Movies > Drag Me to Hell |
Posted by April
Reuters reports: Alison Lohman will replace Ellen Page in Sam Raimi's horror film "Drag Me to Hell."
The "Juno" Oscar nominee dropped out last week, facing a scheduling conflict after "Hell" was delayed because of a protracted preproduction period. It bumped against two other projects on Page's dance card: the roller-derby comedy "Whip It!" and the thriller "Peacock."
Producers were looking for another babyfaced star and found one in 28-year-old Lohman, best known for portraying a younger-than-her-years character in "White Oleander." She recently voiced a role in "Beowulf," and played a recovering addict in "Things We Lost in the Fire."
February 1st, 2008 - "Strong director a must" says Alison Category: Movies > Things We Lost In The Fire |
Posted by April
Alison Lohman has spoken out about how she likes working with strong directors.
The 28-year-old Californian worked with Danish filmmaker Susanne Bier on new film Things We Lost In The Fire, and was very impressed with her presence on set.
"Susanne is a very strong and formidable presence," she revealed.
"She can change the ambience very quickly - it can be intense, or playful and fun with everyone laughing. She will do that by her personality."
And Alison admits that she will only work with strong-willed directors who can give her a degree of trust.
"I would like to choose a director that I can trust," she said.
"It doesn't matter how good the director or how good the script is, if I feel the director doesn't want me or if I don't feel like I can trust them, in terms of having the character my way and them liking it, then I wouldn't want to get involved in that project. It wouldn't be worth it to me."
Alison added: "It's a collaboration, because the director has this vision of what they want and then you come in knowing the character very well. I would look to the director to give me some feedback."
Things We Lost In The Fire, which also stars Halle Berry, David Duchovny and Benicio Del Toro, is now on release in the UK.
