Proud to introduce to you Eliza Dushku

Eliza Dushku

Her father is Albanian, and her mother is American of Danish, Irish, English, and German descent.

Dushku began acting at the age of 10 when she was discovered by casting agents for the film That Night (1992).

She played the lead role of Alice opposite Juliette Lewis in the film.

Since then, she has been in several films and has worked with actors such as Robert De Niro, Ellen Barkin, Leonardo DiCaprio, Paul Reiser, and Jim Belushi.
