- Charlie Lynn Spradling was born and raised in Forth Worth, Texas. Spradling began her show business career acting in plays in and around her home town for nine years after joining a local children's theater group. Charlie eventually left Texas and moved to Hollywood, Los Angeles, California in the mid-1980's. In the wake of getting her SAG card in 1987, Spradling embarked on an acting career in both films and TV shows alike that lasted for about fifteen years. Charlie had co-starring roles in several low-budget horror movies that were made and released by Charles Band's Full Moon Entertainment (Charlie was also a spokes model for Full Moon in the early 1990's). Moreover, Spradling had a rare lead role as troubled stripper Nina in To Sleep with a Vampire (1992). Charlie went into the publishing field after calling it quits as an actress: She helped design and launch the luxury direct mail publication The Arroyo Monthly as well as was a senior executive at Pasadena Magazine. In addition, Spradling also co-founded the salad company Stacked Sally, LLC.- IMDb Mini Biography By: woodyanders

- [1992 comment on being labeled a scream queen] I didn't even know I was in that category. I haven't seen any of the films I've done all the way through. I'm not really up on the genre, and I don't know any of the other so-called scream queens. Linnea Quigley? Who is she? I don't live and die as an actress with horror. These are just films I've done and, in most cases, I've done them for the money.
- I'm not the type of person to take a lot of shit from anybody. If I'm right, I'm right -- and I'm not about to back down.
- I don't research my roles. I'm not into Method acting and stuff like that. It's just a natural thing.
- [on acting in low-budget movies] They're fun to do, and there's certainly a lot of experience to be had from being in them. But having a good time is the main reason I'm in this business. When it stops being fun, I'll get out.
- I'm not ashamed to tell people that I've done a lot of crappy movies for the money. That's how I've paid the rent -- and how I've learned.
