About Martha MacIsaac

Her Early Life

Martha MacIsaac grew up in Charlottetown, which is in Prince Edward Island, Canada. She is the youngest of three sisters. Her mother, Irene, came from a very large family with twelve children!

Starting Her Acting Journey

Martha began her acting career when she was young. Her first big role was playing Emily Byrd Starr in the TV show Emily of New Moon. This show was based on popular books by Lucy Maud Montgomery.

She also performed in many plays. In 2006, she was in a play called The Wild Duck. Her acting in that play was so good that she was nominated for a special award called the Dora Mavor Moore Award. She also acted in three different productions of a play called Our Town.

Martha once shared that she has looked up to actress Julia Roberts since she was four years old. She even said she was "obsessed" with her! Martha hoped to act alongside Julia Roberts someday, maybe in a movie like a "female version of Twins".

Acting in Movies and TV Shows

Martha has been in several well-known movies. These include Superbad in 2007 and Dead Before Dawn in 2012. In 2009, she appeared in a movie called The Last House on the Left.

In late 2012, Martha got a main role in a TV comedy series called 1600 Penn. She played Becca, who was the president's oldest daughter. Another actress was first chosen for the role, but Martha was cast instead because she looked more like the other actors playing the family members. Martha later said that 1600 Penn was her last audition before she thought about moving back to Canada.

She has also lent her voice to many animated shows. You might have heard her as Bridgid in Eckhart or Melosa in Di-Gata Defenders. She even voiced characters like Patty in the popular show Family Guy.
