Biografia
Annette M. Lesure (born Annette Michelle Chavez), hails from McAllen, Tx. where, at the age of eight, she first graced the stage as "Snow White" in a school production. At that ripe, young age she knew she had found her calling in acting (devotees: Lesure was a very evolved, sentient eight-year old). She went on to write and act in several plays throughout middle school competing in UIL, The University Interscholastic League, created by The University of Texas, at Austin. While at the same time, developing a multitude of other talents, she also began to earn her keep by doing runway modeling at age 12. At age 13, Annette competed in her only pageant and won the title of Little Miss America. All the while studying voice and dance to enhance her acting skill.
That next summer life changed forever. At age 14, Annette's mother Estela Burt, took a leap of faith and moved her and her brother to Palm Springs, Ca. The purpose of the move was for Annette to pursue her dream. Within months of arriving, Annette shot a hand-full of National Commercials, landed her first t.v. series, and became Screen Actors Guild.
Annette pursued her academic prowess and attended every school from College of the Desert to UCLA, in between every audition and booking. Her penchant for Journalism and Foreign Language proved to be too much with the demanding schedule of acting.
After commuting from Palm Springs to Los Angeles for six years, Annette finally moved to Los Angeles.
In the last two decades, Annette has appeared in over 100 National Commercials, and many t.v. shows such as a series regular on Nickelodeon called Wild N Crazy Kids, The New Adventures of Robin Hood (in Vilnius, Lithuania-airing internationally), four years recurring on General Hospital, E.R, Las Vegas, Football Wives, Windfall, Miss Match, recurring on What About Brian, Samantha Who, Bones, CSI and House. Annette's only Los Angeles stage appearance was at the Tiffany Theatre, in "El Salvador", where she earned an Ovation Award Nomination. Although Annette's love is for television she occasionally works on film. Her most recent being a Christmas movie for the Hallmark Channel, called Annie Claus Is Coming to Town (2011), with Vivica A. Fox.
Annette spends her days pursuing her love for acting and raising her 7 year old son, Preston Jude Lesure, who also became a working SAG actor at the age of 1. They have had the pleasure of working together on a few National Commercials.
