Where did Abbie Cornish go to high school?
Abbie Cornish was born on 7 August 1982 in Lochinvar, New South Wales, as the second of five children of Shelley and Barry Cornish. Her sister, Isabelle Cornish, is also an actress. She grew up on a 70-hectare (170-acre) farm before moving to Newcastle. As a teenager, Cornish was fascinated by independent and foreign films.
Cornish, who did her HSC at a Catholic school in Maitland, landed her first acting job when her modelling agency sent her to audition for a part on ABC’s Children’s Hospital. Playing a quadriplegic, Cornish realised she’d found her medium.
When Cornish was 16 years, her parents split up and she left home – two incidents that she says were unconnected. “I think as a child you know when it’s time for your parents to split,” she says. “You realise they love each other, but they’re not in love with each other. And I think as a child it’s much better for your parents to split than for them to stay and have dysfunction within the family.”
