Actress Dru Mouser was born in Fort Worth, Texas. When she was an infant, her family, wanting to be near her maternal grandparents, moved to the countryside- Glen Rose, Texas, where they stayed for ten years. Five children in all, Dru was the youngest. Dru considers her formative years as essential in developing her imagination and her desire to be an actress.
Moving back to Fort Worth, once she was in middle school, Dru started doing plays and went on to be the lead in almost every production until graduating high school. Dru then enrolled, on partial scholarship, at Texas Tech University. It was while majoring in Theatre there that she met Casting Director Toni Cobb Brock who helped her obtain an agent in Dallas, Texas.
Dru booked the first movie she auditioned for, which was a scene in the MGM motion picture, Rush. She continued to work steadily throughout Texas, eventually moving to Los Angeles where she could compete for more substantial roles. Having established herself as an actress, Dru worked hard, studying, and continuing to obtain roles including guest stars, recurring, and series regulars, as well as small roles in big movies and big roles in smaller movies.
Dru and writer/ producer Cliff Dorfman welcomed their son, Dylan in June of 2004. Being a mother has not detoured Dru from her acting career.
