Sarah Barrable-Tishauer was born on July 6, 1988, in Toronto Ontario. She is most recognized from her role as Liberty Van Zandt on Degrassi: The Next Generation.more
"Liberty", the character that she plays in the famed series, is a shy, but tough looking girl who wears glasses and who has a hard time admitting she is in love with a boy from the Degrassi school. Nevertheless, Liberty soon gets involved romantically with the boy she likes, JT Yorke. The two eventually move too fast, and in Season 5, Liberty gave birth to JT's baby.
Sarah: Yeah, I'm a very driven, independent person. I'm very stong, like Liberty is. But I would say I have a bit more fun than she does. I don't take myself as seriously as she does. But there is definitely similarities between us.
Sarah: It's really hard for me to decide on a favourite book because I have way too many to count. In the summer when I'm just relaxing, I like to read ditzy books like Confessions of a Shopaholic and Gossip Girl. But when I'm in school and not reading fluff novels it's a different story. I really enjoyed Go Ask Alice because it was a true account of a girl's struggle with drugs and gives it's reader a definite reality check. I recently read Skud by Dennis Foon and loved it's grittiness & realism.
Sarah: I have also enjoyed some of the books we read in school which show us life from a different perspective and help us learn from our past to make a better future. Last year I enjoyed reading Chrysalids, To Kill a Mockingbird and The Wars. There are such bold underlying themes and messages which I think we can all learn from.
