00:00Born in LA, Hayley Steinfeld began studying acting from a very young age after being inspired when her cousin landed
00:06a commercial.
00:07Although Hayley has a successful career these days, it didn't come easily at first.
00:11Luckily, she's always had great support from her family.
00:14It took a really long time and a lot of auditioning and there came a point where my mom said
00:20to my agents and my managers,
00:21said, you know, are we in the right place? Is she as good as everybody says she is?
00:26And my mom always believed in me and she stuck with it because she knew it was something that I
00:31wanted.
00:32In 2009, Steinfeld got a big break when the Coen brothers chose her over 15,000 other hopeful young girls
00:38for a major role in their movie True Grit.
00:40Starring opposite Jeff Bridges, Matt Damon and Josh Brolin, she earned an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress at just
00:4614.
00:47Hayley also dipped her toe into fashion design, helping to create her own Oscars dress back in 2011
00:52and after musical roles in Begin Again and Pitch Perfect 2 released her first singles in 2015.
00:58There's so many ways to be creative and I think for me, I've found something, I've found a place where
01:05I can do that.
01:06And I think as long as I'm feeling like that's going well for me, then I don't know, I think
01:12as long as you're doing something you love, then you're in the right place.
01:15It looks like this young starlet is just getting started taking the world by storm.
01:19It looked like 1995.
01:19I did be hanging out for example.
