Restless childhood
The future star of television series Sammy Hanratti was born on September 20, 1995 in a large American family. Parents at that time lived in a small town in western Arizona. My father worked for a ranch. Mother was engaged in housework. The girl was the youngest of five sisters in the house. By then, older sister Daniel had already achieved some success as an actress. Two years later, the head of the Hanratti family decided to leave the cotton plantations of his native state and move to the famous city of Los Angeles.
To a large extent, the persistent invitations of the eldest daughter became the reason for the change of residence. Daniel managed to adapt in Hollywood and make some acquaintances with the producers. Not to say that she achieved impressive success, but shooting in commercials and episodic roles on television brought good income. Sammy Hanratti from an early age demonstrated vocal abilities. She loved to sing songs from children's cartoons. She danced well. She liked to have small performances in the evenings in front of her sisters and parents.
Sammy came to fame at the age of six. One of the parents saw an advertisement in the newspaper about the casting for the commercial. Mother took the girl by the hand and led to the appointed hour at the appointed place. From a good dozen applicants, the producers chose the youngest Hanratti. The fact that advertising forms habits, tastes and behaviors has not been denied for a long time. Advertising appeals are imposed with the expectation of the target audience. Chips and sodas are considered a favorite food for children and adolescents.
In the commercial, Sammy crunched wheat-potato chips from Pringles so appetizingly that the whole country doubled the sale of this treat. The main performer immediately received the nickname "Girl of the Chips". The size of the fee for shooting pleasantly surprised parents and sisters. But the most important thing was not in the money. The girl, as they say, was taken in pencil by producers of advertising agencies. Just a week later, Sammy was invited to star in a presentation of vegetable oil. She participated in this project already with knowledge of some rules and subtleties of the process, although she was still far from professionalism.
