Biography
Acting career
Raven is currently the star of Disney Channel's
sitcom That's So Raven (as Raven Baxter). Previously she played young Olivia on
The Cosby Show from 1989 to 1992. She went on to co-star in the sitcom Hangin'
With Mr. Cooper.
She has voice-over roles in the Disney Channel
cartoon series Kim Possible as the recurring character Monique, and had a role
in the 2004 film Fat Albert, and frequently appears in Disney Channel-related
telefilms.
Raven also played Eddie Murphy's rebellious
daughter Charisse in the movie, Dr. Dolittle and in Dr. Dolittle 2.
She also appeared on the season 5 premiere of
Punk'd after being tricked by Ashton Kutcher for parking on the handicap zone,
which is illegal to park without a handicap placard.
Music career
She has also released several albums, including
Here's to New Dreams (1993), and Undeniable (1999). Her only single from her
1993 album was a hip hop track entitled "That's What Little Girls Are Made Of";
it was little more than a name-drop to various other acts of the era. She
sometimes uses David Ijegbulem (her old boyfriend) for inspiration. She also got
a huge weight gain after undergoing a bout of depression and overindulging in
2002.
In 2004, she released her third studio album, This
Is My Time. It features the songs "Backflip" and "This Is My Time", also
included on the Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement soundtrack.
