Born in Miami on April 16, 1996, Anya Josephine Marie Taylor- Joy moved to England with her family after living in Argentina until the age of six. After starting a new life in London, Anya set her mind on becoming an actress at a young age. Thanks to her unique beauty and her talent that will impress everyone in the future, it didn’t take long for her to get her first modeling gig and thus she started her career in show business. The beautiful actress, who saved all her earnings to move to America while she was modeling, left her life in London when she was 14 and moved to New York City to focus on acting. There Sarah Doukas, the founder of Storm Model Management, who played an important role in the careers of names such as Kate Moss and Cara Delevigne, discovered Anya. Their stories begin like this: While the beautiful actress is walking her dog on the street, a car with Doukas in it approaches her and she hands Anya her card. Anya decides to call Doukas right away, even though she knows she won’t be pursuing her modeling career for long. Right after meeting with Doukas, she sits at a desk with an acting agency and starts taking acting lessons by taking a break from her formal education. Thus, a new page opens in Anya’s life and she has the chance to add many successful films to her career at a young age.
