Leeanna Walsman (born October 15, 1980) is an Australian actress. She is perhaps most well known for her role as Zam Wesell in "" (2002) and for playing Carly Bishop in the Australian film "Looking For Alibrandi" (2000).

Early life

She was born in Sydney, Australia. Walsmann's family include her father Bob, mother Elaine, who works with her son David in their importing and wholesaling business.

She left school at 16. "The day I told my parents that I didn't want to go on to year 12, I had this big speech prepared because I thought they'd scream and shout about me making the biggest mistake in the world. I never liked school and although learning is interesting to me, it got to the point where I just refused (to learn) because I didn't like my surroundings. I'd always forget my homework and never hand anything in on time. I was over it all, I just wanted to get out there and act. Mum and Dad said it was fine with them, as long as I made a promise to pursue it and not sit at home and do nothing, and I did, and I am."

Career

Her theatre credits include: "Othello" for the Bell Shakespeare Company (2007); "The Shape of Things" for the Sydney Theatre Company (STC) co-starring Brendan Cowell (Jan 2003); "The Cosmonaut's Last Message to the Woman He Once Loved in the Former Soviet Union" at Belvoir St. Theatre (Feb-Mar 2002); playing the junkie muse to Robyn Nevin's artist in the STC production of "Old Masters" (Oct-Nov 2001); "The Recruit" (Jan 2000) also featuring John Howard, Christopher Stollery, Conrad Coleby, Genevieve Lemon, Drew Forsythe, and Brendan Cowell; and her breakthrough performance in "La Dispute" (May 2000) also starring Rose Byrne, David Field, Rhondda Findleton and Justine Saunders.
