in Halloween II, The Black Waters of Echo's Pond, Super Capers

Date of Birth : 1 June 1977, Daytona Beach, Florida, USA Birth Name : Danielle Andrea Harris Height : 5' (1.52 m). Danielle’s family moved to Port Orange, Florida when she was in the fourth grade, where she attended Spruce Creek Elementary School. However, her tenure there was short-lived after winning a children’s beauty contest which took her to New York.

When in New York, Harris began her professional career by appearing in television commercials while maintaining an A average at PS 117 and PS 232 in Queens, New York. Her first acting role soon followed in 1985, when she made her debut as Sammi Garretson on ABC’s One Life to Live, a role she played for three years. In 1988, she auditioned for and won the part of Jamie Lloyd (Michael Myers’s niece) in the movie Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers.

Just one year later, she would reprise the role in Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers. The character of Jamie returned in 1995 for Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers, but Danielle did not participate due to disagreements on her fate in the script. Also, Harris requested $5000 to appear in the film (far less than she was paid for Halloween 4), but no agreement could be reached. J.C. Brandy ended up playing Jamie in the film, a decision with which some of the fans of the Halloween series were dissatisfied, since Danielle had become very popular with them.

Harris would later return to the franchise in a new role, that of Annie Brackett, in Rob Zombie’s Halloween, a 2007 re-imagining of John Carpenter’s 1978 original. In the 2007 remake she posed nude for a sex scene which caused controversy. She stated “I want people to see me in this movie as Annie Brackett, not Jamie.

I’m not little Jamie anymore and people need to realize that.” She reprised her role in Rob Zombie’s Halloween II, released on August 28, 2009. Harris’s other film credits include Marked for Death (1990) alongside Steven Seagal, Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead (1991) alongside Christina Applegate, City Slickers (1991), The Last Boy Scout (1991) alongside Bruce Willis and Damon Wayans, Free Willy (1993), Daylight (1997) alongside Sylvester Stallone, Wish Upon a Star (1996) alongside Katherine Heigl, and Urban Legend (1998). She has also appeared frequently on television.
