First off, Who is Rachael Leigh Cook?

That was the chapter in her life that changed everything and got Rachel hooked on the world of flashy cameras and film. She passed an audition in Los Angeles and, soon enough, had her first role in the film The Baby-Sitters Club in 1995. Three months later, she had another role in Tom and Huck, a movie by Jonathan Taylor, in 1995.
