Her father is Tariq Anwar and her mother is
Shireen Anwar. Anwar attended Laleham Church of England Primary and
Middle School from 1975 to 1982. Trinian's sketch in the school concert
of 1982 gave an early indication of her theatrical leanings. She
studied at the London drama and dance school, "Italia Conti". She
appeared in many British television productions before making her film
debut in Manifesto (1988).
Her first American movie was If Looks Could Kill (1991), in which she played the daughter of a murdered British Agent (played by Roger Daltrey). In 1992, she made a guest appearance on Beverly Hills, 90210 (1990) as "Tricia Kinney". She followed that with the films, Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken (1991) (inspired by "A Girl and Five Brave Horses"), Scent of a Woman (1992), Body Snatchers (1993), For Love or Money (1993) and The Three Musketeers (1993). In 1994, People magazine named her one of the 50 most beautiful people in the world. One of her most memorable moments on screen came in 1992's Scent of a Woman (1992), when she danced a tango with Al Pacino, whose character was blind.
