Carly Schroeder Actress

Schroeder landed her first assignment in acting at the age of 3 in 1993 when she accompanied her cousin to an acting audition and the casing director expressed their wishes for the three-year-old to work for them. Kelli Schroeder, her mother, was first hesitant but after thinking of college expenses, she allowed her daughter to get into acting.

She then got a job as a child print model and soon began doing print work in Chicago for Sears, Roebuck and Company, Kmart, Spiegel, Lands’ End, Chuck E. Cheese’s and many other print advertisers. In 1995, she was asked by Bob Ebel, a child director, to do several TV commercials.

In 1997, she got hired by ABC to play Serena Baldwin on Port Charles. For her role, she got nominated for a Young Artist Award on the show twice, in 1999 and in 2000 and a Young Star Award nomination for Best Performance by a Young Actress in a Daytime TV Program in 1999.

She landed a role in Disney Channel’s Lizzie McGuire originally as a one-time appearance as Melina Bianco but ended up shooting twelve episodes of the show and also appeared in The Lizzie McGuire Movie in 2003, in the same role.

She auditioned for her first feature film role in 2003 and won the role of Millie in the thriller Mean Creek. It led to wide acclaim for Schroeder while the rest of the cast won the Humanitas Prize at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival, and was awarded the 2005 Independent Spirit Festival Special Distinction Award for best ensemble cast.

In 2006, she got her next film role in Gracie for which she began an intense three-month work-out to land the role. The work-out included a daily regimen of not only physical fitness, but also of training in advanced soccer skills with professional athletes and trainers.

Her other movie, Eye of the Dolphin, won two awards from the 2007 International Family Film Festival in the category of a Best Child Actor win for Schroeder, and a Drama Feature win for the movie. It was also named as an Official Selection for the Tribeca Film Festival, Delray Beach Film Festival, Kids First! Film Festival, Tiburon Film Festival, USA Family Film Festival and the Worldfest Houston Film festival.

In early July 2017, it was announced that Schroeder would return as Serena Baldwin to General Hospital to honor the late Peter Hansen, who had died in April 2017, who had portrayed her grandfather, Lee Baldwin.
