Born in Paris (France) in a family of cabaret artists, Elfie witnessed in France the beginning of the crazy and iconoclastic spirit of cabaret.
Her father Paco was one of the founders in the 70s with Jean-Marie Riviere and Marc Doelnitz of the Alcazar, the cabaret in the heart of St. Germain des pres that became the revolutionary and mythical place of Parisian nightlife.
Elfie naturally spent her childhood backstage at the Alcazar and in the world of entertainment.
Starting at the age of seven, her insolent red hair attracted the attention of many famous photographers (Guy Bourdin, Sarah Moon, and Oliviero Toscani) for whom she becomes the muse in a number of publicity campaigns (published in VOGUE, ELLE).
Requested by the TV directors well known at the time to act in the famous TV series "Les Dames de la Cotes", "La Muse et la Madone", "Les Enfants de Fortune", Elfie also appeared in theater plays as well as in feature films directed by Roger Vadim and Jean Becker.
At 10 years old, she began accumulating much collaboration on many records featuring famous singers of the time, such as Sheila, Les Compagnons De La Chanson, Lewis Furet and Carol Laure.
It was at 12 years old that Elfie's career took a different turn: she co-hosted with Dorothee “Recree A2” on France Channel 2, the leading children TV Show that left its mark on a whole generation of children and families. At the same time she records "Tom Sawyer" the theme song from the famous cartoon.
For the next five years she split her time between the TV show sets and the School for Entertainment Children that she was attending.
She also studied ballet and music at the Conservatoire de Paris
At the age of 18 years old Elfie signed a record deal with EMI Records and moved to Los Angeles where she continues to pursue her career as an actress and a singer.
She has worked in voiceover in many films such as "The Rugrats in Paris" and "Spy Kids". She has also scored music for TV and Radio commercials among them “Dollywood” and “Mountain Dew”.
She now spends her time between Paris and Los Angeles participating in many independent films. Recently she was one of the vocalist for the sound track of the film “ScaryMovie3” and has just finished writing a screenplay, “The Alcazar” which retraces memories of her childhood spend backstage at the cabaret and which she is currently developing as a feature film.
