At just 12 Years old Ella Anderson was praised by critics for her role as Jeannette Walls in "The Glass Castle" as "The show-stealing Ella Anderson" "First among equals" "Emotional and raw" "Simply Enchanting..possessing acting chops well beyond her years." "Anderson is a revelation"

Ella Anderson is a versatile actress known for her roles in "The Glass Castle" 'The Boss,' 'Mother's Day', 'Unfinished Business' and the 2016 Kids Choice Award winner for Favorite Kids TV Show, 'Henry Danger' Anderson was born in Ypsilanti, Michigan, on March 26, 2005. She got her big break at 5, when she was discovered by a casting director in Detroit, Michigan. She quickly landed a part in the Feature Film 'Touchback', followed by roles in films that include 'The Giant Mechanical Man', 'Last Man Standing', 'The Possession of Michael King', James Franco's directorial debut film, 'Bukowski', as well as Franco's UCLA short film 'Miss Famous' with Kristin Wiig.

Jeannette Walls: "The cast spent a lot of time together and bonded like a family. The complex and nuanced emotions captured by Ella Anderson in some of those tough scenes blew me away. Sadie Sink also really got adolescent Lori’s sarcasm. I give a lot of credit for the amazing performances to Naomi Watts, who treated the young cast members like they were her own children."
Jeannette Walls: "The amazing production designer Sharon Seymour went to great lengths to create 93 Little Hobart Street and when I first went in, I gasped."
