Emily Jean Perkins (born May 4, 1977) is a Canadian actress, born in Vancouver, British Columbia. She has appeared in various Canadian and American movies and television series. As a child actress, she was most notably recognized for her portrayal in two made for television movies: 1989's Small Sacrifices, opposite Farrah Fawcett, Ryan O'Neal and John Shea, and 1990's Stephen King's IT, with a young Jonathan Brandis and Seth Green. She is currently most famous for her roles in the films Ginger Snaps (2000), Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed and Ginger Snaps Back, the later two being released in 2004. In 2004, Perkins and her live-in boyfriend (whom she refers to as her "partner" and refuses to marry until same-sex marriage laws are passed worldwide) adopted Perkins' two cousins, then aged 10 and 13, because their birth parents were unable to care for them.
From June of 2001 until the show's end, she had a recurring role on the television series Da Vinci's Inquest. She taught acting at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth during the 2005-2006 academic year.
