Biography
Adrianne Palicki was born May 6, 1983 in Toledo, Ohio, to Nancy and Jeff Palicki. She graduated from Whitmer High School in Toledo in 2001. She didn’t take the stage in her first play until she was a sophomore at Whitmer High School, where she was named runner-up for homecoming queen. While in high school she played basketball and ran track. “I always wanted it act. It was always a dream of mine,” Annie says. “I didn’t get into theater until I was in high school, and then, once I got into it, I decided that I was not going to go to college, and I was going to take the money I had and move to New York. I went broke and went back to Ohio, and then I moved to L.A. Two years later, I started working.”
