Brittany was raised in Atlanta, Georgia and her parents were divorced when she was very young. She moved to New Jersey at a young age to persue acting across the river in New York. She did theatre productions off Broadway to make enough money to move to California and attempt to get into big production films. When she arrived in Hollywood she began acting in short-run television shows and got her big break in the film Clueless. She has also been in a whole slew of films in the last few years but it is her work in Mike Judge's King of the Hill as the character Luanne Platter that has gotten her the most consecutive work and attention. Brittany is the type of women most teenage women identify with, just the average cute lovable teen.
