Born in Houston, Texas, USA in 1964. Susan Swift, brown haired and brown eyed with a winning smile, made her film debut at 13 in Robert Wise's supernatural drama Audrey Rose (1977), in which she gave a stunning performance as Ivy, a young girl who is plagued by horrific nightmares about burning to death in a car crash, which are believed to be her last memory in a previous life. Holding her own alongside Marsha Mason and Anthony Hopkins, Susan was able to convey childish innocence in the role of Ivy, and could also turn on the tears in the more intense scenes. The following year, she played Barbara Eden's mousy daughter Dee in the comedy Harper Valley P.T.A. (1978), then took a four year break. Reincarnation had been the big theme of Audrey Rose (1977), and it was again with her next movie Burned at the Stake (1982), a little seen but very impressive film about the 17th century Salem witch trials. Some television work came Susan's way in the 1980s, but filmgoers had to wait until 1995 before she hit the cinema screen once again!
