From Hungarian descent, Amber was born March 2nd, 1972, in Tampa Bay, Florida. Amber grew up tough part of that city, where she was not accepted by the other girls. She fought often and won, but these fights led to a minor imperfection on the bridge of her nose(not that you can notice it though).

Around 1989, Amber packed up and left for Europe to pursue a modeling career. With her ambition to become America's #1 pin-up girl she soon began to appear on magazine covers and runways alike. Her big break came in 1993, when she was chosen to model for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, joining the ranks of such supermodels as Kathy Ireland, Elle Macpherson and others.

Since then Amber has shifted her attention from modeling to acting. Taking two years off from modeling, Amber trained with her acting instructor Doug Wharhit and also at the Stella Adler Conservatory to prepare herself for what is hoped is a long and prosperous acting career. At the moment Amber has been featured in ten films with many more to come in the future.

Now that Amber has gathered some experience and has acquired quite an impressive filmography she is planning to continue on towards bigger and better roles. She just hired Jenny McCarthy's manager for a much needed media boost, this will also include among other things a few "sexy editorials". Our little secret is about to become a household name...and it's about time.

Film wise Amber has a few movies coming out soon. Keep your eyes out for How To Be A Player and also for the HBO film Laws of Deception. Also she has just finished filming another Red Shoe Diaries film that will come out some time next year.

This is just a rumor, but appearently Amber is busy writing a true life screenplay about a porn star who commited suicide. Information is a little sketchy at the moment because Amber is involved (supposedly) in a legal dispute with the individual's family. If more information surfaces you'll find out here.

"This Rita Hayworth look-alike from Miami comes by her modeling talent naturally, following in her mother's footsteps. Independent, hard-working and very private, Amber takes every assignment seriously and has an instinct for graceful movement before the camera. Away from the modeling scene she jogs, sings and enthusiastically pursues acting, which has already brought her an HBO film role and a number of commercials." [Julie Campbell, Sports Illustrated]
