## Biography[edit]

Born in Edina, Minnesota, Bartilson began dance classes at age 4, and won a dance competition three years later. The following year, she made her acting debut as the Wicked Witch in her drama class's production of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.[1] Bartilson's primary education consisted of home schooling by her mother.[2]

In 2002, Bartilson recorded "This Christmas I Will Give My Love to You" and "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" for School's Out! Christmas (2002).[3]

Bartilson has been a member of the Church of Scientology since childhood, and is active in a number of Scientology-related organizations, such as Youth for Human Rights International.[4] In October 2004, she was the Mistress of Ceremonies for the first annual "Youth for Human Rights Day International" in Los Angeles, appearing onstage with Leisa Goodman and other prominent Scientologists.[5]
