Biography:A prolific film, television, and theater actress, "Megan Follows" became a TV star as Anne Shirley in Canadian television's adaptation of L.M. Montgomery's popular Anne of Green Gables books.

Born in Toronto to two actors, Follows began acting on TV as a toddler. After she appeared in several Canadian features and shows, and made her American movie debut in "Stephen King"'s "Silver Bullet" (1985), her performance as Montgomery's feisty redheaded orphan in the acclaimed 1985 miniseries "Anne of Green Gables" and the 1987 sequel "Anne of Avonlea" won her two Gemini awards and made her an international name. Supposedly putting her career-making turn as Anne behind her, Follows continued to act in plays and movies throughout the 1980s and early '90s, including TV movies "Sin of Innocence" (1986) with a young "Dermot Mulroney", "Inherit the Wind" (1988), and Back to Hannibal: The Return of Tom Sawyer...
