Personal life
Robb was born in Denver, Colorado, the daughter of David and Janet Robb. She was named after her maternal great-grandmother, Anna Sophie, and her paternal grandmother, Anna Marie.[1] She enjoys singing, snowboarding, rafting, and reading, particularly the Harry Potter series and historical fiction.[2]Robb competed in dance and gymnastics for four and a half years, but quit in order to focus on acting.[1] She attends a public high school in Centennial, Colorado,[3] and she plans to attend college afterwards.[1] Robb is a Christian.[4][5]
Robb has said that she is of English, Scottish, Danish, Swedish and Irish descent.[6]
Career
After starring in a commercial for McDonald's, Robb made her acting debut in 2004; she had a small role in the episode "Number One Fan" of the television series Drake & Josh (her character informs Josh that the group only joined the Campfire Kids so they could hang out with their friends and eat free food). Her first major role was as the title character in the television special Samantha: An American Girl Holiday. Her hair was dyed dark brown for the part.Robb's two big-screen appearances in 2005 were both adaptations of popular children's books. She starred as Opal in Because of Winn-Dixie and as the competitive and rude gum-chewer Violet Beauregarde in Tim Burton's remake of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The latter was a major box office success worldwide, and helped escalate Robb's popularity among preteen audiences. She became friends with many of her co-stars, including Julia Winter and Missi Pyle (who played her on-screen mother, Scarlett), and enjoyed working with Johnny Depp. She requested that the scene of Violet hugging Wonka in the factory's entrance hall be included in the film.
In 2005, Robb was the face of Trad Clothing, helping to design and model a fashion line for girls. In 2006, she had a guest role on the cartoon show Danny Phantom as the voice of Danielle "Dani" Fenton but was replaced.
Robb played Leslie Burke in Bridge to Terabithia, which opened in U.S. theaters on February 16, 2007. She recorded a song for the soundtrack titled "Keep Your Mind Wide Open", and the accompanying video received rotation on the Disney Channel.[1][7] The song appeared on the Billboard Hot 100 at #90 during the week of March 1, giving Robb her first charting single.[8] Robb was a fan of the book before being cast in the role, saying that it "touched me in a way I hadn’t been touched by a book before."[2]
Robb went on to appear in The Reaping, along with Spy School, Jumper (in which she played the younger version of Rachel Bilson's character Millie) and the drama Have Dreams, Will Travel. Robb's performance in the film Sleepwalking garnered praise; Time film critic Richard Schickel said, "There is a wonderful range to Robb's work...this is extraordinarily mature acting from someone this young and she wins our sympathy without once begging for it."[9]
Robb starred alongside Dwayne Johnson in Race to Witch Mountain, which was released in March 2009.[10] She will voice Periwinkle in Tinker Bell and the Mysterious Winter Woods in 2011.
Earlier in 2010, she filmed The Space Between with actress Melissa Leo. She also recently finished filming Soul Surfer in the role of Bethany Hamilton, who continued to surf after losing her arm in a shark attack.[11]
Awards
On March 30, 2008, Robb won her first career award when she was named Leading Young Actress at the Young Artist Awards for her role in Bridge To Terabithia. The film itself won a Young Cast award.[12] On 24 April 2009, she received the Horizon Award at the 14th Annual Palm Beach International Film Festival. She was awarded the Rising Star Award at the Denver Film Festival on November 12, 2009.[11]As actress
