| |
Melissa Joan Catherine Hart was born April 18, 1976 and grew up in Sayville, New York. Most of her siblings have acting career. Her sister, Trisha Hart has worked as a producer. Her acting career started at the age of four when she did a commercial for a bathtub toy called "Splashy". Her mother, Paula Hart, has been her agent from the beginning. Melissa performed in two plays as the youngest member of New York's Circle Repertory Lab Company: "Beside Herself" in 1989 and "Imagining Brad" in 1990.
In 1989, she auditioned for a Broadway production of The Crucible starring Martin Sheen. This led her to land the title role in the TV show Clarissa Explains It All. After the series was canceled, she attended New York University. She did not complete her degree as she resumed her acting career in 1994 when she got the lead role for the TV movie Sabrina the Teenage Witch, which eventually led to her also starring as Sabrina in a television series. In between, she also worked on the series Touched by an Angel and starred in several TV movies. In 1999, Melissa landed a small part in a movie named Can't Hardly Wait, and then starred in Drive Me Crazy. In 2003, Hart and her production company, Hartbreak Films, produced a miniseries entitled Tying the Knot, documenting her wedding to musician Mark Wilkerson, a member of the band Course of Nature.
