Despite the rapid development of information technology, cinema remains the most important art for a significant part of the population in developed countries. Maggie Lawson came to the cinema contrary to family traditions and attitudes.
Starting conditions
Getting a cameo role in a popular movie isn't that hard. To realize this modest desire, it is necessary to regularly attend auditions, which are held at all film studios. Maggie Lawson dreamed of acting in films from an early age, but she chose a completely different strategy. The girl was born on August 12, 1980 in a Catholic family. Her parents, who came from Ireland, raised her in strict rules, according to the traditions bequeathed by her ancestors. My father worked as an administrator at a hotel. The mother was engaged in housekeeping.
Margaret grew up as an obedient child, while showing perseverance in achieving her goal. As her age approached, she began attending a school for Catholic children. Studying was easy for her. The future actress's favorite subjects were history and literature. Once she decided to memorize the famous wreath of Shakespeare's sonnets and successfully coped with the task. Maggie did not miss classes in the theater studio, which operated within the walls of the school. Already at that time, she decided that she would receive an acting education.
The path to the profession
After graduating from high school, Lawson entered the acting department of the university in his hometown of Louisville. The experience she gained as a schoolgirl was useful to her at the university. It should be noted that the student closely followed the announcements of the casting. And she chose only suitable, in her opinion, events. According to long-established rules, assistant directors looked into university auditoriums when selecting actors. For the first time Maggie received an invitation to participate in the filming of the movie "Unhappy Together" when she was sixteen years old.
After completing her studies, the certified actress already had a decent rating among her colleagues. When Maggie turned twenty, she starred in the movie They Swapped Places. Popular actors took part in this project, who treated the aspiring actress as an equal. The next stage in his creative career was participation in television series. After the release of the famous film "Secrets of Smallville", the actress got a personal agent who was engaged in the execution of contracts.
Personal life scenario

In between the seasons, Lawson starred in Back In The Game. The film has won several awards at various film festivals.
Maggie's personal life is not going well. For eight years she maintained a relationship with the director of the series "Seer". When the project ran out of steam, the director left her. In 2015, the actress married a little-known actor. In 2017, the husband and wife divorced. Lawson took these partings hard. By nature, she is not a windy woman and is not capable of treason. Time will tell how the circumstances will develop in the future.
