Mia Kirshner began her stint in the theatrical world at an early age, in fact while she was still in school. She was starring in both Canadian and US productions such as Sweating Bullets, My Secret Identity, Are You Afraid Of The Dark and Dracula (the series) before making her big screen debut in
A few other films followed but it was
Atom Egoyan’s Exotica that really propelled both of Mia Kirshner and Egoyan into the attention of Hollywood. Egoyan has chosen his own eclectic, almost Cronenberg-like path through Hollywood while Kirshner is a bit more direct. Her next film was with Kevin Bacon and Christian Slater, a really dark but fascinating film called Murder in the First that is worth a look if you missed it.

She appeared in a few more films that were not as well received by
the public though the critics usually had some good things to say. These
included films like The Grass Harp, Century Hotel and Anna Karenina
with Sophie Marceau. She returned to Television in 2001 with the
short-lived Wolf Lake series and again in the teen comedy entitled Not
Another Teen Movie. More recently she appeared in New Best Friend with
Taye Diggs, a story of a deputy sheriff who investigates the murder of a
college student which is connected to an unusual class project.
