Mischa Barton is one of those rare people who combine incredible beauty, intelligence, modesty and a warm personality all in one neatly wrapped package. Although remembered mainly for playing Marissa Cooper in The O.C., she has, over the years, built up an impressive resume of stage, TV and film work, plus a number of lucrative advertising deals. One of her most recent film roles was in Richard Attenborough's latest production, Closing The Ring, and her performance there led Attenborough to describe her as one of the finest actresses he has ever worked with. Although she currently does not plan on a return to the small screen, prefering to concentrate on movies and possible stage work, she has not completely dismissed the idea of returning to TV in the future.
