Tiffani Amber Thiessen biography
Tiffani Amber Thiessen rose to fan magazine fame for her portrayal of Kelly Kapowski on the teen soap "Saved by the Bell"(1989). 2 years before she landed the job, she won Miss Junior America after a childhood of competing in several pageants. Born to Frank, a park designer, and to Robyn, a homemaker, on January 24, 1974.
Tiffani got her start in acting and modeling at an early age. After hitting it big with her Miss Junior America accomplishment, Tiffani turned to act. Two years later, she had a job. "Saved by the Bell" lasted 4 years; after portraying a squeaky teen, she was in for a different character.
In 1994 a much new Tiffani, including a different look, went on to play Valerie Malone on the hit teen drama "Beverly Hills 90210" (1990).
Instead of playing a wholesome teen, Tiffani played a blackmailing, conniving vixen who slept with every male on the show and became rivals with every female. During this time, Tiffani went through several television movies and a minor role alongside Pauly Shore in the comedy Son in Law (1993). Trying to surpass her former role as wholesome Kelly Kapowski, Tiffani Amber Thiessen posed nude several times in both 'Veronica' and 'New Look magazines.'
In 1998 she left her role on 90210 to pursue a career in movies. Speedway Junkie (1999) and Love Stinks (1999) are independent and followed. A small break came in late 1999 when her boyfriend, David Strickland, committed suicide. His body was found in a Las Vegas motel room, hanging from a bed sheet.
In 2000 she tried her comedy side out, starring in The Ladies Man (2000) and Shriek if You Know What I Did Last Summer (2000). With 2 new films coming out, it looks as though she will be able to surpass the label "child actress" and grow to become more successful than she is already.
