Chloë Grace Moretz
10 February 1997
An American actress and model. She moved from Cartersville, Georgia, to New York City in 2002, with her mother and her older brother, Trevor, because he was accepted into the Professional Performing Arts School, which is what first drew her interest in acting. Moretz would help Trevor read lines, and he taught her some acting techniques that he learned in school. When Moretz realized how much she enjoyed acting, the family decided to attend some auditions to see if she could apply her skills professionally. As of 2010, Trevor is her acting coach and accompanies her on trips and press dates when her parents are unable to attend.
Her first award nomination came the following year for "The Amityville Horror". Her film credits include "(500) Days of Summer", "Diary of a Wimpy Kid", "Kick-Ass", "Let Me In", "Hugo", "Dark Shadows", "Carrie", "If I Stay" and "The Equalizer". In 2010, Moretz provided the voice of Hit-Girl for "Kick-Ass: The Game". Three years later, she reprised the role in "Kick-Ass 2". In 2014, she performed in The Public Theatre's off-Broadway production of The Library in March and April.

Quotations
* * *
I follow the most random people on Twitter. I follow famous people like Khloe Kardashian, who surprisingly makes really funny tweets all the time.
* * *
A lot of people are like, 'So you want to be famous.' And I'm like, 'No, I want to be good at my craft. I don't care about fame, I don't care if I even ever make it. As long as people know what I am as an actress in this business, I'm set for my career right now.'
* * *
I'm an average, everyday girl.
* * *
My mom has always said that if I get a big head, she'll take me out of this business as quickly as I got into it.
* * *
No matter how big you are in the business, at the end of the day it's still work.
* * *
I'll date one day if I find someone that I want to let into my life enough.
* * *
I'm not up for violence, just for fun.
* * *
My mom's the one I look up to for everything. I feel like I'm a lump of clay and she's moulding me into a woman.
* * *
My brother Trev went to the Professional Performing Arts School in New York, and he used to do his monologues and stuff and rehearse in our apartment. So I used to hear him all the time doing these things over and over and over. And when I was a little girl, I used to soak up everything - like anything anyone did, I soaked it up.
* * *
I was raised to think cursing makes you look unintelligent.
* * *
Everyone around me is so strict about keeping me grounded.
* * *
I hope to make acting my career for the rest of my life, if I can.
* * *
My mom gives me an allowance. She keeps me pretty tight-reined.
* * *
My mom won't let anyone treat me like a little princess.
* * *
My mum reads every script before I go for it.
* * *
The best thing about having four big brothers is you always have someone to do something for you.
* * *
The problem with me is, anything that's easy I will just overdo it. Especially with clothes.
* * *
I actually work at my craft, and I actually want to be the best in my category, and I want to be a true actress. And a lot of people just want fame, and there's a huge difference.
* * *
An actor always goes to the safe side.
* * *
I'm a very competitive girl. In everything I do.
* * *
I always want to be an actress.
* * *
As Chloe, I can honestly say I've never uttered a syllable of a curse word, not even behind closed doors.
* * *
It's a good harsh reality, because my family keeps me very grounded.
* * *
If acting doesn't work out I'd love to produce, direct, or write.
* * *
Turning 16 is kind of scary because when you're 16, you go from being a kid and then you can drive and are more of a young adult in a way.
* * *
When I've done gymnastics, ballet or soccer - I was always trying to be the best. I'm really driven. Really driven.
* * *
You go up for hundreds, thousands of roles, and you get told no, no, no, so many times.
* * *
I wore my first pair of Louboutins during this press tour. It was absolutely amazing, they weren't heels, they were little shoes, but they were velvet and they were blue.
