Molly Ringwald was born on February 18, 1968, in Roseville, California, near Sacramento in Placer County. She was the youngest daughter of blind jazz pianist Bob Ringwald. She was very determined from an early age to establish herself in the public eye. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Little Molly, just a kid, went out of her way to play on the stages where her father and his southern folk group performed. They entertained the population of the city of Roseville<\/a>. The band was called The Fulton Street Jazz Band. They also played in Sacramento, California.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Childhood under the Spotlight<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At the age of 6, she released her first album, “I Wanna Be Loved By You, Molly Sings.” Yet, a year earlier, she had already made her first stage appearance. It was a children’s production of  “Alice in Wonderland” at a local California theatre. At the age of 8, the young actress appeared on television in “New Mickey Mouse Club.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, at age 10, Molly became a rising star. She was cast in the title role of the West Coast Production musical, \u201cAnnie.\u201d A year later, she made her TV debut with a recurring role as Molly Parker in the soap “The Facts of Life.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1982, she made her first film under the direction of Paul Mazursky, \u201cTempest.\u201d It was based on Shakespeare’s play and Molly had John Cassavetes as her partner. Followed by that were three no-budget, no-star films.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meeting with Famous Directors<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It was Molly’s meeting with director John Hughes that finally set the ball rolling. She was a wild Northern California teenager with a flamboyant head of red hair and freckles. Molly continued under Hughes’ direction with the famous \u201cBreakfast Club.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One major role in the early 90s for Molly Ringwald was in \u201cBetsy’s Wedding.\u201d It’s a bittersweet comedy directed by comedian Alan Alda. Finally, the destiny of the young woman took her to France. Quite a long way from downtown Roseville. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Molly swapped Los Angeles for France to shoot a film, \u201cFace the Music,\u201d which hasn\u2019t been released. She meets her lover there, as well as some directors who offered her several roles. Among them were Jean-Charles Tacchella and especially Tonie Marshall. They made her one of the four \u201cChildren of Bastards\u201d in the homonymous film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Hollywood Adventure<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Molly finally felt the call pulling her a bit closer to the Sacramento area this time. She left for Hollywood where she made a thriller, \u201cMalicious.\u201d It was a new genre for her and she got her own sitcom, “Townies.” The next step for her career began to take shape, despite the occasional flash role. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, she\u2019s the star of \u201cCut.\u201d She plays an outrageously pretentious and capricious American starlet. We’re expecting Molly Ringwald in a new horrific thriller, \u201cRequiem for Murder.\u201d She plays a radio host who\u2019s passionate about classical music and who starts to kill her detractors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Molly went from Roseville resident to Hollywood starlet, leaving a trail of beloved characters. She continues to make Roseville proud, the place she calls home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
