Amber moved to Los Angeles to begin her second career before the age of twenty three.

Amber was cast in her first role in Paul Mazursky's Faithful on a referral from Robert DeNiro that stemmed from her Casino auditions.

She was cast in both The Funeral directed by Abel Ferrara and Barbra Streisand's The Mirror Has Two Faces.

Later, she played the part of Susan Lefferts, a Rita Hayworth look alike, in Curtis Hanson's L.A. Confidential.

Her resemblance to Rita Hayworth came into play yet again when she landed a role in HBO's The Rat Pack.
