Zosia Russell Mamet (pronounced Zaw-shuh Mam-it) (born February 2, 1988) is an actress, columnist, model and a voice actress for Regular Show.

Early life

Zosia Russell Mamet was born on February 2, 1988 in Randolph, Vermont to her parents, David Mamet, a screenwriter, and Lindsay Crouse, an actress. Her parents divorced when she was a young child. She attended an Episcopal school as a child, despite that not being her and her mother's religions. Mamet was not allowed to watch television as a child. She began acting at 14 years old. Her math tutor in high school was Nicole Steinwedell, who would later star in the CBS series The Unit, a series which Zosia's father created. Following high school, Mamet decided to pursue an acting career rather than going to college. She explained her reasoning with: "I was horrifically unhappy. I love learning and I was always a very good student because I hated not doing well. But I had some extreme social anxieties. I never really got along with kids my age. I was a bit of a precocious child. I could go with my dad to a party full of famous Hollywood individuals and be fine. But put me in a room with a bunch of other 17-year-olds and I would stand in the corner, terrified."

Career

Acting

Mamet currently portrays Shoshanna in the HBO series Girls. She auditioned for the role while she was suffering from pnuemonia-esque symptoms, but nonetheless still won the role. She has acted in a wide variety of media, being television, film, theater and online works. Her television work includes Mad Men, Parenthood, United States of Tara and The Unit.

Her online work includes Snuggle Bunny: Man's Most Lovable Predator and Miss USA's Sexy Halloween. She has also done voiceover work, providing the voices of Amber Lamber in High School USA! and Celia on Regular Show.
