Amber Tamblyn siblings: Does Amber Tamblyn have a sister?
Amber’s father, Tamblyn married actress Venetia Stevenson in 1956, but they divorced the next year. In 1960 he married Elizabeth Kempton, a showgirl, in Las Vegas.
In later years, Tamblyn discovered he had a daughter he did not previously know about from the 1960s with artist and spiritual practitioner Elizabeth Anne Vigil. His first daughter, China Faye Tamblyn, is an artist and heavy metal welder who lives in California.
Tamblyn did not meet her until she was a teenager and only after the birth of his second child, actress Amber Tamblyn, who was born in 1983 to his third wife, Bonnie Murray.
Tamblyn grew up around such Hollywood heavyweights as actor Dennis Hopper (1936–) and music great Neil Young (1945–), and listening to their stories, and those of her famous father, fueled an early interest in performing. From the age of five, she attended an experimental school in California called the Santa Monica Alternative Schoolhouse, also known as SMASH.
