Bio
"Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves."
Carl Jung


I let other people do my work for me:
Parker Posey hails from Laurel, Mississippi the daughter of Chris Posey owner of Laurel's own Posey Chevrolet. Parker attended high school at North Carolina School of the Arts and college at the prestigious SUNY Purchase. While at SUNY she roomed with Sherry Stringfield of TV's "ER". Displaying an off-kilter beauty and an ability to embrace the comically bizarre, Parker Posey has been repeatedly referred to as "The Queen of the Indies." Following her indie debut in Richard Linklater's 1993 Dazed and Confused, Posey went on to star in no less than 15 independent features over the next five years, proving time and again how worthy she was of her royal title.


Against the wishes of her management, she accepted two supporting roles right after the unexpected success of Party Girl.
Twin brother, Chris, who practices law in Atlanta.
Named after the 1950s model Suzy Parker.
Named "Queen of Indies" by 'Time' magazine since she has appeared in some 30 films since 1994, most of them low-budget independent movies.
Briefly dated Zach Leary; son of LSD guru Timothy Leary.
One of Parker's current interests is making Pottery.
Is a contributing editor to Open City literary magazine.

Her former boyfriend was writer/editor Thomas Beller, Editor of the Open City literary magazine and publishing house, www.opencity.org and Mr. Beller's Neighborhood, www.mrbellersneighborhood.com, a literary website about New York City.
Measurements: 33B-25-34 (Source: Celebrity Sleuth magazine) (HA!)
