Kathleen Robertson
A pert, brunette ingenue who teased the men of “Beverly Hills, 90210″ for four seasons, Kathleen Robertson played Clare Arnold on the Fox TV series from 1994-97, with her character departing Southern California for France. Around the time she chose to leave the series, the actress was on the big screen as a trashy lesbian in Gregg Araki’s visually striking “Nowhere” (1997).
Born and raised in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, Robertson began to study acting, voice, and dance at age 10. She was still in her teens when she played Tina Edison, the genius daughter, in “Maniac Mansions”, a TV series about a family of inventors which aired in the USA on “The Family Channel” (1990-93). In 1992, Robertson had a co-starring role in the Canadian feature “Lapse of Memory” and when she was invited to Los Angeles for its screening, she decided to remain and try her luck in Hollywood. Although only 19 years old, she acclimated quickly and within less than a year, had played a young woman threatened by the plague in “Quiet Killer” (CBS, 1992) and a young woman who, along with Stefanie Powers, was threatened by a street gang in “Survive the Night” (USA Network, 1993). Robertson was also a girl who catches the eye of a troubled teen in “Liar’s Edge” (Showtime, 1992) and a rather seductive young woman in “Blown Away” (HBO, 1993). View more of Kathleen Robertson here
