  Sarah Polley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sarah Polley (born on January 8, 1979, in Toronto, Ontario) is a Canadian actress and director of short films.
Her disenchantment with Disney was rooted in an incident during the Gulf War, when she was invited by Disney to appear at a Children's Awards Show in Washington, DC.
Following the row with Disney, Polley dedicated more of her energy to left-wing politics, becoming a prominent member of the New Democratic Party, where maverick Ontario legislator Peter Kormos was said to be her political mentor.
