Tiffany Helm

Birthday: 12 May 1964, USA

Lovely and perky actress Tiffany Helm was born on May 12, 1964. She's the daughter of Peter Helm and veteran actress Brooke Bundy. Tiffany studied dance with Roland Dupree and was a member of "The Beverly Hills Mime Troupe". She started modeling in her mid-teens. Helm made her film debut with a small role in Hard to Hold (1984). She had her sole starring part as nice homeless girl "Kate Haskell" in The Zoo Gang (1985). Tiffany achieved her greatest enduring cult cinema popularity with her winningly sassy and spirited portrayal of spiky punk rock chick "Violet" in Friday the 13th: A New Beginning (1985). Helm was likewise excellent as sweet and vulnerable innocent juvenile delinquent "Andrea Eldridge" in the hilarious babes-behind-bars parody Reform School Girls (1986). Moreover, Tiffany made guest appearances on such TV shows as Freddy's Nightmares (1988), 21 Jump Street (1987), You Again? (1986), Santa Barbara (1984), The Young and the Restless (1973), Bare Essence (1983) and Likely Stories, Vol. 3 (1983). Her last acting credit to date was a voice-only contribution to the 1996 video game Rama (1997). Tiffany Helm has since retired from acting and now works in portrait photography. Show less «

I thought Violet was pretty bad-assed. I just hoped I would have some input on her style, as Hollywood had no concept of what the alternative crowd was doing at the time -- this was before pink hair with tattoos were in vogue. And I always had a good bond with the wardrobe department when I worked, so we went out and shopped together. A lot of the clothes were mine already, and the hair I had done before I even read for the part. Siouxsie Sioux was my female idol at the time, so I tried to use some of her make-up suggestions.

My mom, Brooke Bundy, was an actress. So, while I wanted to have a career with a little more substance, life kind of took me in the direction of acting. Nothing was said about the film being a "Friday the 13th" -- I thought the reason being that if potential cast members knew they were going to be involved in such a money making venue, they would ask for a better contract. It was not until we were cast that the real name of the project was revealed. But I was happy to be working. Show less «
