As Claire Fisher on HBO's Six Feet Under, Lauren Ambrose was known as the youngest child of Nathaniel and Ruth Fisher (Frances Conroy). Exposed to the family-run mortuary, she grew up with vivid fantasies and visions of dead people, just like other characters on the show. Although the most creative in the family, she was considered as rebellious and struggled with drugs and bad relationships. In the final montage of the show, it was suggested that she became a photographer and a teacher who ended up marrying Ted Fairwell (Chris Messina) before passing away in 2085. At present, the 29-year-old actress already has a son with photographer husband Sam Handel and still remains active in the entertainment industry with her upcoming projects.
