Biogaphy

Acting career

Raven is currently the star of Disney Channel's sitcom That's So Raven (as Raven Baxter). Previously she played young Olivia on The Cosby Show from 1989 to 1992.

She has voice-over roles in the Disney Channel cartoon seris Kim Possible, and in the 2004 film Fat Albert, and frequently appears in Disney Channel-related telefilms.

Music career

She has also released several albums, including Here's to New Dreams (1993), and Undeniable (1999). Her only single from her 1993 album was a hip hop track entitled "That's What Little Girls Are Made Of"; it was little more than a name-drop to various other acts of the era.

In 2004, she released her third studio album, This Is My Time. It features the songs "Backflip" and "This Is My Time", also included on the Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement soundtrack.
