Early life
Liam Aiken was born in New York City, the only child of Bill Aiken, an MTV producer, and an Irish immigrant mother, Moya Aiken. He attended Dwight Englewood School. He made his professional acting debut in a Ford Motor Company Windstar commercial. Liam made his stage debut in the Broadway play A Doll's House at the age of seven and his film debut playing Parker Posey's son in Henry Fool in the same year. His mother encouraged him to begin acting, because of his need for a college fund after his father's death in 1992 from cancer. When Aiken found that he enjoyed acting, he decided to continue.
Career
Aiken's first major film role was playing Susan Sarandon's young son in Stepmom in 1998, which also starred Julia Roberts and Jena Malone. He appeared as Tom Hanks' younger son in the 2002 film Road to Perdition. He starred in the family film about dogs from space, Good Boy! playing the lead, Owen Baker, in 2003. He turned down the role of Cole Sear in The Sixth Sense (1999) because his mother felt he was too young for the death-fixated role; the role went instead to Haley Joel Osment. Liam was also considered for the role of Harry Potter, as he had previously worked with director Chris Columbus on Stepmom.1 However, as he is not British,2 Daniel Radcliffe took the part. Liam then went on to play the intelligent, 12-year-old orphan, Klaus Baudelaire in Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events in 2004. In March 2009, Liam was cast as Johnnie Pappas, in Michael Winterbottom's remake of The Killer Inside Me, starring Casey Affleck, Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson.
In the fall of 2008, Aiken entered New York University as an undergraduate studying film and television.3
