Demri could communicate and socialize beyond her years. As a three-year-old, Demri was tested by experts at the University of Washington, who told her parents she had the vocabulary of a high school senior, but her exceptional language skills weren’t always well received by adults or other children.

Coming off the success of “Man in the Box”, Paul Rachman traveled to Seattle to direct Temple of the Dog’s video for “Hunger Strike”, which was shot in the spring of 1991. It was during this period that he met Demri. One night she came up to Rachman and told him, “I’m an actress up here and I’d love to audition or whatever”. On a napkin, she wrote down what Rachman described as “a handwritten head shot” with her name, contact information, and adjectives such as “good-looking”, “short”, “loud” and “exotic” to describe herself. Demri told him she was modeling and wanted to do music videos and then movies. “She really needed to move to LA but didn’t – she thought she could get gigs with contacts in LA and fly there to work but that doesn’t really work”, Rachman wrote in an e-mail. Of the note’s significance, he wrote, “That note does give proof of her professional dreams”. – "Alice In Chains: The Untold Story" by David de Sola
