Biography
[edit]Hale is the daughter of former Connecticut State Senator Gary Hale and Barbara Duncan.
At an early age, local pageants, theatre productions, and commercials allowed Hale to showcase her acting, singing, and dancing talents competitively. At age 3, she appeared in The Nutcracker at the New England Ballet Theatre, and later played the lead in Annie at Sacred Heart University. She has sung the national anthem at University of Connecticut men and women's basketball games, and the state Republican convention.[1]
In 2002, Hale began auditioning in New York City and launched her professional acting career with a day-playing role on the soap opera All My Children. She became notable for playing Marta, the giggly, blonde back-up and co-lead singer with the pigtail braids, in Richard Linklater's School of Rock (2003).
