Panettiere was born and partly raised in
Palisades,
Rockland County,
New York, the daughter of Lesley R. Vogel, a former
soap opera actress, and Alan L. "Skip" Panettiere, a
fire department lieutenant.
[2][3] Panettiere, whose surname means "baker" in
Italian, is of
Italian descent.
[4][5] She has one younger brother, fellow actor
Jansen Panettiere.
[6]Although Panettiere attended South Orangetown Middle School in New York, she was educated
at home from the 8th grade through
high school.
[7] For now, Panettiere is postponing higher education in favor of an
acting career.

[
edit] Actress
Panettiere began
modeling when she was four months old. She first appeared in commercials at 11 months, beginning with an advertisement for
Playskool.
[9] She landed a role as
Sarah Roberts on the ABC soap opera
One Life to Live (1994-1997), and she followed that up by playing the part of
Lizzie Spaulding on the CBS soap opera
Guiding Light (1997-2000). While on Guiding Light, Panettiere's character Lizzie battled
leukemia. For drawing the attention of daytime viewers to the disease, and for improving national awareness, the
Leukemia and Lymphoma Society gave her its Special Recognition Award.
[10]Panettiere appears as Claire Bennet in the NBC series Heroes as a
high school cheerleader with
regenerative healing powers. Thanks to her role on Heroes, she became a regular on the
science fiction convention circuit, invited to attend conventions around the world in 2007, including
GenCon,
New York Comic-Con, and
Fan Expo Canada. Panettiere has complained that her acting options are sometimes limited because "people look at [her] as either the 'popular cheerleader' type or just 'the blonde'."
[11]Panettiere at
Comic-Con 2008She has appeared in over a dozen full-length feature films, several made-for-TV movies and provided the voice for Dot in
A Bug's Life.
[12] She played the role of Coach Yoast's daughter, Sheryl, in the 2000 Disney film
Remember The Titans. In addition, she voiced

United Talent Agency.
[13] Forbes estimated that she earned $2 million in 2007.
[14]In early 2007, Panettiere appeared on the syndicated
Ashton Kutcher-produced show,
Punk'd. The appearance was engineered by her mother and involved a male "fan" discussing her work with her, instigating a jealous reaction from the man's spouse. In December 2007 Panettiere was named GQ Magazine's Obsession Of the Year.
In September 2008, Panettiere appeared in a satirical video, a mock-PSA (public service announcement) on
funnyordie.com entitled "Hayden Panettiere PSA: Your Vote, Your Choice".
[15] Again, in October, Panettiere appeared in another satirical PSA video on funnyordie.com entitled "Vote for McCain: He's just like George Bush, except older and with a worse temper".
[16]In July 2009, Panettiere starred in the teen comedy
I Love You, Beth Cooper. She is listed as a star in the provisional cast of a teenage comedy still in development, Daydream Nation, to be written and directed by Michael Goldbach.

[19][
edit] Endorsement

cover girl for their new worldwide ad campaign;
[20] following in the footsteps of actresses
Kristin Kreuk,
Josie Bissett,
Jennifer Love Hewitt,
Mandy Moore,
Mischa Barton,
Gabrielle Union and
Jennifer Freeman.
In September 2007, Panettiere appeared in a
Heroes-themed

[21]In February 2008,

Kelly Clarkson.
[22][
edit] Personal life
Panettiere with Heroes co-star
Milo VentimigliaIn 2006, Panettiere began dating
Stephen Colletti, the former Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County, star.
[23] The couple broke up in September 2007.
[24] In December 2007, it was widely reported that she was dating her
Heroes co-star
Milo Ventimiglia,
[25][26] though Panettiere denied these reports in an interview with
GQ.
[27] These reports continued through the early part of 2008,
[28][29] and several sources had reported that she asked Ventimiglia to move in with her.
[30][31][32] In April 2008, during an interview on the
BBC's
The Chris Moyles Show to promote the second season of Heroes, Ventimiglia confirmed that he was dating Panettiere.
[33] They ended their relationship in February 2009.
[34]Hayden has a tattoo of the Italian words Vivere senza rimipianti [sic] running down the length of her left flank. The word rimpianti is misspelled in what otherwise would have meant "To Live Without Regrets."
[35][
edit] Activism
On October 31, 2007, Panettiere joined with
Sea Shepherd to try to disrupt the annual
dolphin hunt in
Taiji, Wakayama, Japan. She was involved in a confrontation between Japanese fishermen and five other surfers from Australia and the United States (including former
Home and Away star
Isabel Lucas) of the group. The confrontation lasted more than ten minutes before the surfers were forced to return to the beach, after which they left the country.
[36] The fishermen consider the condemnation as an attack on their culture.
[37]Panettiere told
E! News that an arrest
warrant has been issued in Japan for her interference in the dolphin hunt but her claim was later dismissed as not true by the Japanese Fisheries Agency.
[38][39] In November 2007, she was awarded the "Compassion in Action Award" from the animal rights group
PETA for her efforts to stop the dolphin hunt in Japan.
[40] She is also a
vegetarian.
[41][42]On January 28, 2008, Panettiere handed a letter of protest to the Norwegian ambassador in the United States arguing that Norway should stop its hunt for whales. She also delivered a letter to the Japanese ambassador calling for the end of Japan's hunting of whales. At a 2007 Greenpeace event in Anchorage, Alaska, Panettiere defended the aboriginal whaling as she explained her view that there is a difference between commercial whaling and the whaling practiced by aboriginal tribes in the United States.
[43]In 2007, Panettiere became an official supporter of
Ronald McDonald House Charities and is a member of their celebrity board, called the Friends of RMHC.
[44]In May 2008, Panettiere was involved in an
eBay auction to benefit SaveTheWhalesAgain.com. The auction included tickets to a fundraising dinner hosted at the Hollywood restaurant Beso, owned by
Eva Longoria Parker, and a whale watching tour, with Panettiere, off the coast of
Santa Barbara.
[45] The same month, during an interview with Teen Vogue, Hayden explained how her fame gives her a platform for her activism: "The show [Heroes] put me in a place to speak for things that I'm passionate about."
[46]In October 2008, Panettiere delved into the activities of the
presidential election. Panettiere released a
public service announcement through the website
Funny or Die. In this video Panettiere mocks John McCain in a satirical tone on the subjects of his age and anger.
[47] She subsequently made clear her intention to vote for
Barack Obama, and urged other young people to vote.
[48]Panettiere also appeared in a public service announcement with
DC Shadow Senator Paul Strauss endorsing voting rights for the District of Columbia.
[49]Panettiere is a teen ambassador for the
Candie's Foundation, whose mission is to fight
teen pregnancy. On May 6, 2009, she participated in a town hall meeting in
New York City alongside
Bristol Palin on the issue of teen pregnancy.
