Born in Berlin, Germany in 1970, Audra turned to acting and singing when she was diagnosed as a 'hyperactive' kid. She mentioned this fact in her Tony acceptance speech in 2014: "I want to thank my mom and my dad up in heaven for disobeying the doctors orders and not medicating their hyperactive girl and finding out what she was into instead, and pushing her into the theater."
