History
Emma Booth (born c. 1981) is an Australian model-turned-actress. Coming from Perth in Western Australia, the former teen model and TV star has recently achieved international stardom with a main role in the film Introducing the Dwights opposite Brenda Blethyn.

As a result, in 2008 she appeared in the horror film Blood Creek to be directed by Joel Schumacher. She will also be appearing in Hippie Hippie Shake with Cillian Murphy and Sienna Miller, an account of the Schoolkids OZ obscenity trials in Great Britain.
Currently, she is working on the film The Wrong Girl, an Australian true-life drama about a teen who had been raped by a notorious Sydney gang and her four-year struggle for justice, written by award-winning screenwriter Nicholas Hammond and directed by Michael Jenkins.
