| Mother Judy Swank moved with her to Los Angeles at age 16, where, impoverished for a while, they lived out of their car. |
| Although she was naturally athletic from high school, she totally changed physically to play Maggie in Million Dollar Baby (2004). She gained nearly 20 pounds, becoming so buff that her former clothes are still too small for her. |
