Annie Lee was born and raised in the City of Angels. Ever since she was young she knew she wanted to be an entertainer. Her first acting class was at the age of 9 at UCLA’s Young Performer’s Workshop. During high school she became interested in pursuing the medical field, but fate let her back to entertainment and she was scouted to do some modeling, print work, runway, commercials, theater, and music videos. When college came around she found her love for performing again and eventually trained with renowned acting coaches in Hollywood such as David Kagen (Meisner technique), Catlin Adams (Strasberg Method), Doug Warhit, Michele Shay, Gary Davis, and Ric De Angelo.

She now holds a Bachelor of Arts from UCLA. Soon after graduation she worked for First Look Pictures to learn more about the distribution aspect of films. Annie then tackled producing by working side by side on production and development with Hollywood’s A-list producer, Doug Claybourne, (The Fast and the Furious, Apocalypse Now), which gave her more skills & momentum to reach her dream.

In a short film, "Mindbenders," directed by Atif A. Mirza, she conducted her own martial arts stunts where she underwent extensive training and even pulled a ligament! She also loves children, which led her to be an acting coach at the LA Performing Arts Center for children. With her desire to give to her community she also volunteered at the Korean Youth Community Center in LA with the Teen Theatre department.

As a filmmaker, she produced a short film titled "Tomato & Eggs" directed by Shawn Chou starring Lisa Lu (The Joy Luck Club), Michelle Krusiec (HBO's Mind of a Married Man), Keiko Agena (WB's Gilmore Girls), and Sab Shimono (The Big Hit), which won the Audience Award for Best Asian-American Short Film at the Big Bear Film Festival.

Currently she is acting, producing and keeping busy with involvement in many independent projects. She is a member of the Lodestone Theatre Ensemble and continues to study the craft of acting & filmmaking.

With a strong passion for films, she is aspiring to be a producer and director.

Ms. Lee makes her feature film acting debut in Close Call.
