In her childhood, Hilary and her sister were both pushed by their filmmaking mother to pursue careers in acting. In fact, as a child, Hilary was homeschooled by her mom to give her more time to develop her career. It all paid off for the actress as when she would have been starting high school, Hilary landed the starring role on the Disney Channel show, Lizzie McGuire. The part blew the young star’s career wide open as she became one of the most famous child actors of the time.
