*2008 L'Oreal Paris AFI Young Actor Award
“The young actors especially Danielle Catanzariti, whose first film this is, are also responsible for much its appeal. Catanzariti is perhaps not as accomplished as Juno's Ellen Page, the film world's current favourite teenager, but she is also a lot less self-consciously cute.”

Danielle won her first feature film role in 2007 when she was cast as Esther Blueburger in the feature film, “Hey Hey It’s Esther Blueburger”.
Danielle starred opposite Toni Collette, Essie Davis and Keisha Castle Hughes.
This delightful film sees Danielle play Esther with a “charm, intelligence and confidence’ that is quite extraordinary for someone so new to the film industry.
The casting directors were quick to see Danielle’s talent when casting her in this film, and she is know being touted as one of Australia’s hottest young up and coming film actors.
Following the completion of ‘Hey Hey It's Esther Blueburger’, Danielle was cast in the prestigious Sydney Theatre Company’s 2008 season play ‘Blackbird’.
Danielle was hand picked by Cate Blanchett who directed Danielle in the play.
Following this Danielle starred opposite Natalie Imbruglia in the Australian feature film ‘Closed for Winter’ which opened in March 2009, as well as recently completing a guest appearance on Seven Network’s ‘All Saints’.
Danielle is currently performing on stage in Fugitive, for South Australia's Windmill Theatre Company. |
