Allison Christine Mack

Allison Mack began her career at age 4 when her mother made an executive decision that she had the personality to be on TV.

Little did her mom know that she was introducing Allison into what would soon be her greatest passion in life. What ensued after this introduction has been 23 years of imagination, creativity, introspection and evolution. Allison has filled her life with characters of all shapes and sizes. From her stage performances in shows such as “Chicago”, “Rent”, and “Hair’ to films with actors such as Sissy Spacek, Estelle Parsons, Christopher Lloyd and Aiden Quinn along with the role she is most well known for (Chloe Sulliven on the CW’s “Smallville”).

Allison’s love for what she does grows exponentially over time. In the fall of 2008 she was given the great honor of directing episode 13 of Smallville’s season 8 (“Power”). This propelled her into a whole new arena of appreciation for the art of film making and was a great impitous for her decision to open a production company, Parvati Creative Inc., alongside two women she admires greatly, Kristin Kreuk and Rose Bhura. Together, the team is focused on making “human-centric films as seen through a female lens”.

Allison recognizes the great responsibility in being a public icon and has enormous respect and honor for the implications of such an honor. She seeks to utilize her craft as a vehicle for positive influence and change in the world. It is her intention to invoke and inspire dialogue and thought to encourage her audiences to have a deeper understanding of them selves and the world around them, and as an effect building a more compassionate and joyful world through the arts. Allison’s insatiable appetite for understanding human dynamics and behavior is an infinite source of insight and excitement. She will be eternally grateful to every person in the world for their individual contribution to this enigmatic and beautifully complex life, it is the fire she uses to propel herself forward with her trademark enthusiasm and fervor.

Now in her ninth and last season on The CW’s acclaimed drama “Smallville,” Allison Mack stars as Clark Kent’s (Tom Welling) best friend, Chloe Sullivan. Mack’s role continues to grow throughout the series as her character comes to terms with latent a super human power developed from being exposed to kryptonite the day Clark Kent arrived on Earth.

Mack also starred in Showtime’s critically acclaimed feature “My Horrible Year!” This story follows the intricate and turbulent life of a teenage girl as she turns sixteen. Mack, who brought years of training and experience to the project, proved to be the perfect fit for Eric Stoltz’s directorial debut. The story was written and directed by Eric Stoltz and also starred Karen Allen and Mimi Rogers.

Since beginning her career at age 4 in her first commercial for “German Chocolate,” Mack has continued to be a busy working actress with an impressive roster of television roles. She garnered much attention for her portrayal of a teenager who abuses and inflicts wounds to her wrist on The WB’s “Seventh Heaven.” In the fall of 2000, Allison starred in The WB’s “The Nightmare Room,” and “The Opposite Sex,” as well as a recurring role in “Evening Shade.” Allison also starred in Disney’s feature “Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves” and “Camp Nowhere.”

An avid fan of musical theatre, Allison’s talents extend beyond film and television. She received rave reviews for pulling double duty, both as a choreographer and performer in “Rent” and “Chicago.” As a result of those performances, Allison was offered the chance to make her directorial debut with Jer Bear Productions’ staging of “Hair.” Rave reviews from LA Weekly, Backstage West, The Tolucan Times and The Burbank Times all attest to Allison’s diversity in the entertainment field. Music and dance, as much as acting, remain a passion for Allison.
