REMEMBER the name Holly Barrett - this plucky 14-year-old is on track to be Australia's next big acting export. 
The ambitious young -performer was barely a teenager when she swapped high school in suburbia for the bright lights of Los Angeles and a full-time job. Barrett (pictured) plays Samantha in the hit US sitcom Life In Pieces, which debuts here on Network Ten on   July 26.
"I came over to LA for pilot season in   January 2015 - I'd just landed in the States and the next day I had an audition for this," she said.
"A day or two later I had a call back. For the third audition, I was very nervous, but after a day or two of waiting, I'd booked the role. It was one of the greatest days of my life."Life In Pieces is like an edgy take on Modern Family but told through several short stories in each episode.
