OUTSIDE READING POST #1

I read an article from the October issue of Seventeen magazine about America Ferrera. The article was written by Jane Nussbaum. America grow up in the U.S, when her father left, her mom raised six kids alone. They lived in San Fernando Valley in California. America Ferrera is the star on the show Ugly Betty (playing Betty) and a star in the movie's of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. America likes to turn down party invites and hang out with her sister, friends and boyfriend Ryan Piers Williams. They had to fight hard to pursue their dreams of acting while promising to keep their grades up. America also had to work extra hard to convince the movie industry that she was star material. Before America entered the set of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants she decided that she'd act professional and not be the girls best friend. America likes to always put her family first.
