Early life
Mack was born in Preetz, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany to American parents, Mindy and Jonathan Mack. Her father was an opera singer performing there. The Mack family moved back to the United States when she was two years old. She has an older brother, Shannon, and a younger sister, Robyn.
Career
She began her acting career at the age of four in commercials for "German Chocolate". Mack then went into modeling for a short period because her mother thought she "looked cute in clothes." She began studying at The Young Actors Space in Los Angeles, California when she was seven.
Her first major TV role came in an episode of the WB series 7th Heaven, in which she gained a lot of attention playing a teenager who cut herself. In 2000, she starred in the short-lived series Opposite Sex. She also starred beside her former Smallvile castmate Sam Jones III in an R. L. Stine miniseries The Nightmare Room. Her filmography includes Eric Stoltz's directorial debut My Horrible Year!, in which she plays a girl having great difficulties in her life as she turns sixteen, and Camp Nowhere.
Mack stars as Chloe Sullivan, Clark Kent's best friend, in the CW hit series Smallville.
In the summer of 2006, Mack's voice was heard as the sister of the main character in the Warner Bros. CGI movie The Ant Bully. That year she also provided the voice of a museum curator named Clea (who bore a deliberate resemblance to Mack) in an episode of The Batman.
In November 2008, Mack began directing for the first time, taking the reins on the episode "Power", which aired January 29, 2009.
In May 2009, Mack has been part of a project with the Iris Theatre Company which is performing a piece of exciting experimental theater at the renowned Prague Fringe Festival this month.
She has been cast to voice Power Girl on the Warner Premiere's animated feature, Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, scheduled to be release on September 29, 2009.
She has announced that she is going to leave Smallville when season 9's run come to an end.
Personal life
Mack and co-star Kristin Kreuk have become close friends, and have started a new clothing line together (along with others). Mack is also an accomplished dancer and singer, and currently lives in Vancouver. She enjoys reading, making art, going to movies and plays and spending time with her friends and family. She has two tattoos: the Dawn Faery by Brian Froud on her right ankle and a "P" near her heart.
