Holly's parents split, 2 years after Holly was born as they were very young and were finding marriage hard, Her parents dropped out of high school, and tried to support their family as best they could. They moved to Manhattan, New York and lived in a series of small apartments, Holly describes this as “Gypsy style living.” In one apartment, she had only a loft that was directly above her parents bed. Holly says “I don’t know how we did it.”
Holly attended the Children's Professional school where her teachers included Ernie Martin, Where other big names like Sarah Michelle Gellar studied. It was there where Holly was noticed by film and TV executives for her exceptional acting abilities. Holly's career started in television commercials and print ads when she was ten.

Her first movie role was in "Sweet Hearts Dance" with Don Johnson and Susan Sarandon.
In 1989 she played ‘propositioned by Tom Cruise’ in the movie "Born on the Fourth of July". As an 18 year old everyone knows Holly from her role as "Kimberly Brooks" on TV series "Picket Fences". Her first meeting with David E. Kelley did not go well. He had told Holly she didn't have enough heart to Play Kimberly on Picket Fences. "I was terribly hurt -- and angry. I thought he was just being mean", says Holly. He then ultimately decided to cast her and rewrote the character to fit Holly's personality when he was unable to find anyone who fit the part. Kelley had to convince Holly to take the part. "Suddenly, he can't find anyone else and now I'm right for the part. Sorry!" He had to keep asking Holly for a couple of weeks before she finally agreed. "I had quite an attitude going" says Holly. In between the four years of acting as "Kimberly", she has also played in movies like "A Perfect Stranger", "A Reason To Believe", "Sins Of Silence", "Daughters" and "Love's Deadly Triangle".

In 1998 she was offered the role of the middle sister Piper Halliwell in Aaron Spelling's drama-mystery-series "Charmed". She decided to take it, because she liked the script. Holly about her Role as Piper: "Piper is so much more unreliable than me, mostly because she overreacts and is worrisome. She's always neurotic and always high-strung. I just don't have the energy to be like her all the time."
Animal lover Holly owns thirteen pets: Three dogs named Travis (a German Shepherd), Hugo and Lola (which she got from Alyssa's mum), two cats (Blue and Selena), four lovebirds (two of it named Lollipop and Flower), her beloved horses Jesse and Jake and two physical disabled hamsters.
