**Gabrielle Mary Antonia Hoffmann**[1][2] (born January 8, 1982)[3] is an American actress. She made her film debut in *[Field of Dreams](/source/Field_of_Dreams)* (1989) and found success as a [child actress](/source/Child_actress) in *[Uncle Buck](/source/Uncle_Buck)* (1989), *[This Is My Life](/source/This_Is_My_Life_(1992_film))* (1992), *[The Man Without a Face](/source/The_Man_Without_a_Face)* (1993), *[Sleepless in Seattle](/source/Sleepless_in_Seattle)* (1993), and then later as a teenager with *[Now and Then](/source/Now_and_Then_(film))* (1995), *[Everyone Says I Love You](/source/Everyone_Says_I_Love_You)* (1996), *[Volcano](/source/Volcano_(1997_film))* (1997), *[All I Wanna Do](/source/All_I_Wanna_Do_(1998_film))* (1998), and *[200 Cigarettes](/source/200_Cigarettes)* (1999).

After a hiatus from the industry, Hoffmann returned in 2007, appearing in various independent projects that garnered critical acclaim. This has been described as a career "resurgence",[4] due to her roles in *[Crystal Fairy & the Magical Cactus](/source/Crystal_Fairy_%26_the_Magical_Cactus)* (2013), *[Obvious Child](/source/Obvious_Child)* (2014), *[Wild](/source/Wild_(2014_film))* (2014), and *[C'mon C'mon](/source/C'mon_C'mon_(film))* (2021). On television, she played April in the [FX](/source/FX_(TV_channel)) series *[Louie](/source/Louie_(American_TV_series))* (2012), Caroline Sackler in the [HBO](/source/HBO) series *[Girls](/source/Girls_(TV_series))* (2014–2017), and Ali Pfefferman in the [Amazon Prime](/source/Amazon_Prime_Video) series *[Transparent](/source/Transparent_(TV_series))* (2014–2019), earning three [Primetime Emmy Award](/source/Primetime_Emmy_Awards) nominations for the latter two.[5]

## Early life

Hoffmann was born in [New York City](/source/New_York_City)[6] to actor parents. Her mother, [Viva](/source/Viva_(actress)), is a retired actress, writer and former [Warhol superstar](/source/Warhol_superstars).[7] Her father, [Anthony Herrera](/source/Anthony_Herrera),[8] was a [soap opera](/source/Soap_opera) actor best known for his role as [James Stenbeck](/source/James_Stenbeck) in *[As the World Turns](/source/As_the_World_Turns)*.[9] Herrera was raised in [Wiggins](/source/Wiggins%2C_Mississippi), [Mississippi](/source/Mississippi), by his maternal grandparents; his own father, Gaby's paternal grandfather, was of [French](/source/French_people) and [Spanish](/source/Spanish_people) descent.[2] Herrera died in 2011 from cancer.[9] Viva and Herrera were estranged shortly after Hoffmann's birth; she was raised by her mother at the [Chelsea Hotel](/source/Hotel_Chelsea) in New York. Her father did not have a significant presence in her life.[10][11] Hoffmann's birth is documented in Pat Hackett's *[The Andy Warhol Diaries](/source/The_Andy_Warhol_Diaries)*. An entry dated January 10, 1982, two days after Hoffmann was born, says a friend telephoned Warhol and told him they were going to the Chelsea Hotel to see Viva and her new baby.[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*]

Hoffmann attended elementary school in Manhattan at P.S. 3 on Hudson Street in the [West Village](/source/West_Village), then another school in [Hell's Kitchen](/source/Hell's_Kitchen). After she moved to Los Angeles in 1994, she attended the [Buckley School](/source/Buckley_School_(California)), before finally graduating from [Calabasas High School](/source/Calabasas_High_School) in 1999.[12]

### Life at the Chelsea Hotel

Until July 1993 at age 11, Hoffmann lived in Manhattan's [Chelsea Hotel](/source/Hotel_Chelsea), which she later said she enjoyed. According to Hoffmann, she and her best friend, Talya Shomron, roller-skated in the hallways, spied on the drug dealer across the hall, and persuaded the [bellman](/source/Bellhop) to go to the neighborhood [delicatessen](/source/Delicatessen) at night to fetch them ice cream.

Hoffmann recalled, "I grew up in downtown New York in the '80s. I have a friend who grew up with me, and she puts it well. She says, 'If you grew up where we grew up, if you weren't an artist, a [drag queen](/source/Drag_queen), [queer](/source/Queer), or a drug addict, then you were the freak.' I grew up in a world where I guess what is considered unusual or abnormal for the rest of America was very much considered the norm."[13] She also reported in an interview that there had been gunfire and a rape at the hotel shortly before they moved out.[11]

Hoffmann and her mother left the Chelsea Hotel after a long-standing dispute with the management that ended in eviction.[11] Regardless, Hoffmann's connection to the hotel had a significant effect on her future. The idea for the 1994 sitcom *[Someone Like Me](/source/Someone_Like_Me_(TV_series))* originated after [Gail Berman](/source/Gail_Berman) (former president of [Viacom](/source/Viacom_(2005%E2%80%93present))'s [Paramount Pictures](/source/Paramount_Pictures)) read a *[New York Times](/source/New_York_Times)* article[1] about the hotel which referred to a children's book that Viva and friend Jane Lancellotti wrote, *Gaby at the Chelsea* (a take on [Kay Thompson](/source/Kay_Thompson)'s 1950s classic [Eloise](/source/Eloise_(books)) books). Berman became the [show's producer](/source/Television_producer).

### Adolescence on the West Coast

After leaving the Chelsea when Hoffmann was 12,[12] she and her mother moved to the west coast to a two-bedroom rented house in [Woodland Hills](/source/Woodland_Hills%2C_Los_Angeles%2C_California), [Los Angeles](/source/Los_Angeles), [California](/source/California), which was badly damaged in the January 17, [1994 Northridge earthquake](/source/1994_Northridge_earthquake). While regrouping their living situation, Hoffmann and her mother temporarily lived at The Oceana Suites Hotel in [Santa Monica, California](/source/Santa_Monica%2C_California).[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*]

### College and assorted jobs

After she graduated from [Calabasas High School](/source/Calabasas_High_School) in 1999, Hoffmann followed her half-sister Alex's example and entered New York's [Bard College](/source/Bard_College) to pursue a degree in literature and writing. Around 2001, she temporarily left her acting career to complete her studies and graduated in 2004; her senior thesis was a [documentary film](/source/Documentary_film).[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*]

After college, she spent much of her 20s drifting. She interned with a chef in Italy, then trained to be a [doula](/source/Doula) after helping deliver Alex's children. For a time, Hoffmann and a boyfriend lived in an old trailer in the [Catskill Mountains](/source/Catskill_Mountains).[1]

### 1988–2001: Child actress

Hoffmann began acting in commercials at the age of four[14] to help pay the family bills. In 1989, she starred in her first movie, *[Field of Dreams](/source/Field_of_Dreams),* with [Kevin Costner](/source/Kevin_Costner), playing his character's daughter, Karin.[15] 1989's *[Uncle Buck](/source/Uncle_Buck)* followed, working beside [John Candy](/source/John_Candy) and child star [Macaulay Culkin](/source/Macaulay_Culkin).[16] After *Uncle Buck*, Hoffmann grew tired of the rigors of screen performance and temporarily retired. Upon hearing of co-star Culkin's income from his following feature films,[11] she reentered the profession.[17] She starred in *[This Is My Life](/source/This_Is_My_Life_(1992_film))* (1992), *[Sleepless in Seattle](/source/Sleepless_in_Seattle)* (1993) with [Tom Hanks](/source/Tom_Hanks), and *[The Man Without a Face](/source/The_Man_Without_a_Face)* with [Mel Gibson](/source/Mel_Gibson).[18] According to Hoffmann, the reception from *This is My Life* gave her confidence and solidified her desire to return to acting full-time.[18]

In 1994, Hoffmann starred in her own sitcom *[Someone Like Me](/source/Someone_Like_Me_(TV_series))* (on [NBC](/source/NBC)) about a young girl, Gaby, and her dysfunctional family. Although generally well received, the series lasted only six episodes.[19] After *Someone Like Me*, Hoffmann led alongside [Shelley Long](/source/Shelley_Long) in the 1995 TV film *[Freaky Friday](/source/Freaky_Friday_(1995_film))*, a remake of the [1976 film of the same name](/source/Freaky_Friday_(1976_film)) starring [Jodie Foster](/source/Jodie_Foster) and [Barbara Harris](/source/Barbara_Harris_(actress)). In the same year as *Freaky Friday*, Hoffmann starred as Young Samantha, the childhood counterpart to [Demi Moore](/source/Demi_Moore)'s character, in the coming-of-age feature film *[Now and Then](/source/Now_and_Then_(film))*.[20] The same year, Hoffmann played Andrea Eagerton in the [CBS](/source/CBS) TV film *[Whose Daughter Is She?](/source/Whose_Daughter_Is_She%3F)*. Between 1996 and 2001, Hoffmann landed roles in several films including *[Everyone Says I Love You](/source/Everyone_Says_I_Love_You)* (1996), *[Volcano](/source/Volcano_(1997_film))* (1997), *Snapped* (1998), *[The Hairy Bird](/source/All_I_Wanna_Do_(1998_film))* (1998), *[200 Cigarettes](/source/200_Cigarettes)* (1999), *[Coming Soon](/source/Coming_Soon_(1999_film))* (1999), *[Black & White](/source/Black_and_White_(1999_drama_film))* (1999), *[You Can Count on Me](/source/You_Can_Count_on_Me)* (2000), and *[Perfume](/source/Perfume_(2001_film))* (2001).

### 2003–2009: Theatre work in New York

Between 2003 and 2007, Hoffmann concentrated on theater in New York. Roles included *24 Hour Plays* (as Denise at the American Airlines Theatre), *[The Sugar Syndrome](/source/The_Sugar_Syndrome)* (Williamstown Theatre Festival – July/August 2005), and *Third* ([Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater](/source/Mitzi_E._Newhouse_Theater)/[Lincoln Center](/source/Lincoln_Center) Theater – September – December 2005). In late 2005, she starred in an episode of *[Law & Order: Criminal Intent](/source/Law_%26_Order%3A_Criminal_Intent)*. She also appeared in the Broadway play *[SubUrbia](/source/SubUrbia_(play))*, alongside [Kieran Culkin](/source/Kieran_Culkin) and [Jessica Capshaw](/source/Jessica_Capshaw) at the Second Stage Theatre on 43rd Street in New York City, which ran from September to October 2006. Hoffmann then returned to the *24 Hours Plays* where she acted alongside [Jennifer Aniston](/source/Jennifer_Aniston).

Since 2007, Hoffmann has made a gradual return to film acting. In 2007, she starred in the film *[Severed Ways](/source/Severed_Ways): The Norse Discovery of America*. In 2008, she appeared in *Guest of Cindy Sherman*, a documentary on art-scene commentator Paul Hasegawa-Overacker's relationship with enigmatic photographer [Cindy Sherman](/source/Cindy_Sherman).
