EDUCATION/OCCUPATION: She is a graduate of Forks High School.
PERSONAL HISTORY:
Before Bella Swan moved to Forks, Lauren Mallory was the most sought-after girl in school. She had dated Tyler Crowley and Mike Newton in her sophomore year. When Bella started attending Forks High, it was difficult for Lauren. Despite the fact that Lauren was in fact much prettier than Bella, many of the guys at school were intrigued by a new face.
Sometime during the summer following her junior year, Lauren was approached by an alleged modeling agent in a mall in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. He told her she was a natural model, and Lauren agreed with him. The agent told her that if she cut her long hair into a shorter, edgier look and had some high-quality headshots taken, her future would be assured.
Lauren followed his instructions — spending three hundred dollars on a haircut and fifteen grand on pictures taken by the agent‘s partner — and never heard from the agent again.
