Anna Daines was born in Fremont, California to Dan and Lara Daines and grew up in Spokane, Washington. She had no formal acting training until high school, but showed a knack for the arts and constantly wrote, directed, and starred in homemade films and plays-- even composing their scores. Anna acted throughout college in professional theatrical productions and commercials, but was a "lifelong bookworm" and studied humanities and French. She had a hard time settling into a discipline, and attended schools and study abroad programs in Hawaii, Utah, Israel, France, and England. After her first leading role in a feature film, Saturday's Warrior (2016), Anna moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting full time. She also has a Master's Degree in interdisciplinary humanities and is an accomplished writer and singer.
