DEBORAH UNGER Date of Birth: 1966 Born in Vancouver, Canada, Unger studied philosophy and economics at the University of Victoria before becoming the first Canadian accepted into the Australian National Institute of Art. "When I graduated from high school," she says, "I had artistic and academic scholarships, and I was trying to figure out what to do. I decided to audition for the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, Juillard and the National Institute of Dramatic Arts in Sydney, Australia. As it happened, the National Institute's were the first auditions because their seasons are the opposite of ours. I phoned them and said, 'What is required?' and I remember this very, very taciturn secretary said, 'Well, darling, basically you gotta be able to breathe and speak and be believable.' And I thought to myself, Faaaantastic! I happened to get in, and there's about 3,000 people who audition and they accept between 12 and 15 and I was their first Canadian. So I decided to not look a gift horse in the mouth." Filmography Thirteen (2003)
