Early life
Mamet was born in Randolph, Vermont, the daughter of playwright David Mamet and actress Rebecca Pidgeon, and is the half-sister of actress Zosia Mamet.[3] She has a brother, Noah.[4] Her father was born to a Jewish family and her mother converted to Judaism.[5]
Career
Mamet became legally emancipated at 15 so she could leave high school at 16 to pursue her career to become a playwright and actress.[6][3] She started auditioning for acting parts when she was 14, but "nobody had ever hired me before. So I thought I'd hire myself" by writing roles.[7]
Mamet wrote, directed and starred in her first film, Two-Bit Waltz (2014), a semi-autobiographical movie with William H. Macy, her mother Rebecca Pigeon, and Jared Gilman.[8]
Mamet has also written plays, "Paris" and "The Solvit Kids", the latter of which she co-wrote with Jack Quaid[7]
According to her co-actor, Tim Jo, who plays her love interest Reggie Jackson on the show, she never watches any of her own work.[9]
Mamet and her half-sister Zosia sing as a duo called The Cabin Sisters. They did an unsuccessful Kickstarter campaign to raise money for a music video.[10]
In September 2015, it was revealed Mamet had been cast in Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising.[11]
