Kara Hayward Bio (Age)

Kara Hayward was born on 17th day of November 1998 in Andover, Massachusetts. She attended Andover, Massachusetts high school where she discovered her love for acting at summer camps where they were asked to write and act in their own films. In addition to acting, Hayward also took dance classes. Apart from school plays, Hayward had no professional experience in acting prior to landing her role in Moonrise Kingdom. Her dance teacher informed her about the open casting call for the movie that took place in nearby Boston and Hayward only chose to attend just for fun with little or no expectations that she would wow her audience.

It was a mix of shock and excitement when she got a call to meet with the legendary Wes Anderson, the film’s director and writer who gladly offered her the role of Suzy Bishop starting her journey to movie stardom. It was while watching Wes Anderson on set that Kara Hayward decided to pursue acting full-time.

The movie was both a commercial and critical success with Hayward receiving much praise. She earned a handful of award nominations and alongside her fellow cast won the PFCS Award for Best Ensemble Acting. In the following year, she made her small screen debut in an episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and also got a part in an episode of White Collar. In 2015, Hayward had three films released – The Sisterhood of NightQuitters, and Fan Girl. She got a role in the critically acclaimed Kenneth Lonergan tragedy film, Manchester by the Sea (2016).

Though her career seemed to have begun abruptly, Kara Hayward didn’t bail on school but completed her high school education. Like her Suzy Bishop character, Hayward is a bookworm. She is said to have a very high IQ and from 9 years old has been a member of Mensa, the world’s highest and oldest high IQ society.
