Holly was born in San Diego, California December 3rd 1973. The family moved to New York when she was the tender age of 7, 1979. Already her stunning looks had turned heads, resulting in jobs in print ads and commercials by the age of 10 years old. At some point she began attending Professional Children's School N.Y. Coached by the great Ernie Martin. Soon these experiences lead to a desire to act, a dream shared by Holly's mother, who herself was only 24 at the time. Holly eventually won her first movie role by age 13 in 1986, playing the daughter of Don Johnson and Susan Sarandon in the feature film Sweet Hearts Dance.

After a few bit parts over the next few years Holly landed a breakout leading role as Kimberly in TV drama "Picket Fences" (1992). At 18, this was Holly's big break starring for four seasons as the insightful daughter of parents played by Tom Skerritt and Kathy Baker in the critically acclaimed TV drama "Picket Fences". This show won Holly critical acclaim and a Young Actors award. Since being cast on "Picket Fences" Holly has played an impressive range of starring roles, including the daughter of a murdered heiress in the fact-based Daughters, killer Diane Zamora in Love's Deadly Triangle: The Texas Cadet Murder and a rape victim in Sins of Silence.

In the 2nd season of "Picket Fences" in 1993 Holly was married to then boyfreind Bryan Smith. With a quicky marrige cerimony in Hollywood Holly is married at age 20. After the show ended in 1996 Holly starred in more roles in TV movies, enjoying her marriage and career success. This wasn't to last, in 1997 she divorced husband Bryan Smith, and yearned for more challenging roles.

In 1995 Holly appeared in the movie A Reason to Believe appearing in a controversial love scene, allthough she regrets doing this movie now. She looks incredibly sexy in her only known nude scene. Holly said "I dont really regret so much doing the movie but, If I knew that the scene was going to be clipped into all those pictures I would never done it." The film was quite rare, only on VHS from private owners for years but a DVD has been finally released. Checkout Video Clip HERE.

Then in 1998 Holly's big break finally came, a good friend (at the time) Shannen Doherty told her about a new Arron Spelling television show based around three sisters who just happen to be witches, who save the world from evil. Looking as sexy as possible doing it they save us mortals weakly. Holly auditioned for the middle sister, won the role, and is now known world wide for her portryal of Piper Halliwell in the WB smash hit show "Charmed" (1998). She currently makes around $60,000 an episode as of 2003 about 1.3 million per year. Holly and Alyssa Milano her co-star on "Charmed" are close freinds and Holly visits Alyssa's parents often and is very close to the Milano family. In 2001 hot bad girl "Charmed co-star Shannen Doherty left the show to pursue "other projects". Rumors fly of differances with co-star Alyssa Milano, and suddenly her role was filled with former rocker girlfreind to Marilyn Manson, Rose McGowan. The lost Charmed sister is reuinited with Piper and Pheobe. Upon Shannen Doherty's departure from "Charmed" (1998), Holly Marie Combs' character Piper became the oldest sister, despite being the youngest of all four actresses who have played Halliwell sisters in the series.

Holly lives lives in Los Angeles, where she enjoys gardening and horseback riding. Holly met and began dating David W. Donoho a key grip on the set of "Charmed" in 2002-2003 sometime. Recently she's quoted saying "I have no interest in a guy who doesn't know the right end of a screwdriver." Apparently he has skill with more than just screwdrivers. On February 14th 2004 Holly married David W. Donoho in a indisclosed location, Alyssa Milano was one of her bridesmaids.

Only 3 months after her marrige to David Donoho, Holly gives birth to the couples 1st child, a son on born April 26, 2004 at 1:30 pm, named Finley Arthur Donoho. Holly and her new husband bought a large piece of property in southern California, they now live in together with her their son and Holly's 17 pets including 3 horses - Jake, Jezebel and Jesse. 4 fish - all un-named. 4 birds - only two of which are named, Lollie and Flower. 2 dogs - Travis and Lola. 2 Cats - Blue and Selena. 2 rabbits - Thumper and Jack. The cats and rabbits are the only pets that live indoors. Well I think her husband also gets to stay indoors too.

Quotes

"I have no interest in a guy who doesn't know the right end of a screwdriver."

"I did one topless scene when I was 20. There was no thought in my mind that they could freeze that moment into 15 different pictures. The worst, I was thinking, was that stupid guy friends of mine could rewind it and play it again."

[About having a child, shortly before getting pregnant] "For some reason everybody on the set - except for me - thinks I should get pregnant for real. It's like they all got together and I've been nominated! Honestly, the thought of having a baby scares me!"

"I was the product of very young parents, and they had wild ways. My mother was in a punk band. Rebelling would have been learning to play piano."

About having a child, shortly before getting pregnant
"For some reason everybody on the set -
except for me - thinks I should get pregnant for real.
It's like they all got together and I've been nominated! Honestly, the thought of having a baby scares me!"
