Born in the vibrant city of Houston, Texas, USA, in the year 1964, Susan Swift was destined for greatness. With her striking brown locks and captivating brown eyes, she radiated a winning smile that would leave a lasting impression on audiences worldwide. Her film debut at the tender age of 13 in Robert Wise's supernatural drama, Audrey Rose (1977),marked the beginning of her illustrious career.
In this critically acclaimed film, Susan played the role of Ivy, a young girl plagued by horrific nightmares about burning to death in a car crash, which were believed to be her last memory in a previous life. Sharing the screen with renowned actors Marsha Mason and Anthony Hopkins, Susan demonstrated her remarkable acting prowess, effortlessly conveying childish innocence and summoning tears in the more intense scenes.
The following year, she appeared as Dee, the mousy daughter of Barbara Eden, in the comedy Harper Valley P.T.A. (1978). However, Susan took a four-year hiatus before returning to the big screen in Burned at the Stake (1982),a lesser-known but impressive film about the 17th century Salem witch trials. The theme of reincarnation, which had been prominent in Audrey Rose (1977),resurfaced in her next movie.
Throughout the 1980s, Susan worked on various television projects, but it wasn't until 1995 that she returned to the cinema, leaving a lasting impact on film enthusiasts.
