Albertina Marie Majorino
Tina Majorino is an Italian-American TV and film actress who started out as a child star in the early '90s. Born February 7, 1985 in Westlake, California, a huge chunk of Tina's childhood and adolescent years were spent on television and film sets. Although she began acting in commercials and on stage at the age of three, her first television came in 1992 when she was cast in the ABC series Camp Wilder.



Tina immediately crossed-over to the big screen with three films in 1994, the romantic



More drama When a Man Loves a Woman, and the family films Corrina, Corrina with Whoopi Goldberg and Andre with Keith Carradine and Joshua Jackson. She followed it up with the action film Waterworld with Kevin Costner the year after. A few more independent films and TV movies thereafter, Tina took a break from acting to have a more regular teenage life.



Tina made her comeback with the cult comedy hit Napoleon Dynamite opposite Jon Heder in 2004. On Fall that same year, Tina landed the role she is probably most known for, when she was cast as Cindy "Mac" Mackenzie, the computer-savvy friend of Kristen Bell in UPN's Veronica Mars. In 2006, she played the recurring role of Heather Tuttle in the HBO drama Big Love.

    Regular on Veronica Mars and child movie star hide show

    She was such a great asset on Veronica Mars and was underused as a regular in the third season where her story lines were given no room to grow. It would of been great to see her and Weevil get together, but even without that the guy she wants at the end is such a let down in her character. But moving on to her as an actress she brings such a presence and original personality that she brings something entirely different to anything she is in. She was also great in Napoleon Dynamite which showed off her ability to be irreverent in the best sense of the word. And one cannot mention her without her spectacular performance in the classic Water World where she did a great job. I can't wait to see her in more things and hopefully given a chance to play a bigger roles.

    Tina...Tina...Tina hide show

    I think Tina is a great actress. She plays Mac( from veronica mars) so well, that I could never in a million years imagine anyone playing her. I love Mac because Tina brings so much to the character. It took me until season three of VMars to realize that Tina was in Corina, Corina(sp?). I loved that movie and Tina is from a town near me. that's another plus. She should branch out more because she's so talented.
