Hilary Erhard Duff was born on September 28, 1987, in Houston, Texas. She grew up between Houston and San Antonio with her father Robert Erhard Duff, a partner in a chain of convenience stores in the two areas, her mother Susan Colleen (née Cobb), a homemaker turned film/music producer, and her older sister Haylie, who is also an actress and singer. From a young age, Duff took after her older sister and, encouraged by their mother, the pair enrolled in acting, singing and ballet classes. Both girls won roles in local theatre productions and, together, at the ages of six and eight, they participated in a touring BalletMet production of The Nutcracker in San Antonio.

In March 2000, Duff appeared in the small guest role as a sick child in the medical drama Chicago Hope right before being cast as one of the children in the pilot episode of the NBC sitcom Daddio. Her Daddio co-star Michael Chiklis stated, "After working with her the first day, I remember saying to my wife, 'This young girl is gonna be a movie star.' She was completely at ease with herself and comfortable in her own skin." However, prior to the airing of the show, the producers dropped Duff from the cast. Depressed, Duff was reluctant to pursue her acting career further.

A week later, she landed the title role of a newly developed Disney Channel children's television series, Lizzie McGuire after her mother, who had likewise become her manager by this time, urged her to audition. Duff played a clumsy teen who dreams to fit in and be popular. The show made Duff a popular household name, particularly with its target demographic of pre-teens and adolescents. Focusing on its central character, the show's mixed media format stood out from the rest of the Disney Channel's programming of the time and, in essence, became the channel's flagship and definitive show of the early 2000s. The show first aired on the Disney Channel on January 12, 2001, and was a ratings hit that attracted about 2.3 million viewers per episode. However, after Duff fulfilled her 65-episode contract with Lizzie McGuire, the show ended. Though Disney considered expanding the franchise to films and a prime-time television series, those plans failed because Duff's representatives said that she was not being paid enough for the proposed series.

In 2003, Duff received her first major role in a feature film when she was cast alongside Frankie Muniz, playing his love interest in Agent Cody Banks. The film received positive reviews; Scott Foundas of Variety magazine labelled Duff's performance "charming," yet thought she was "sidelined with little to do much of the time." The same year, Duff reprised her role as Lizzie McGuire for The Lizzie McGuire Movie. It received mixed reviews; some slammed her acting skills whilst David Levine from Filmcritic.com called it "an unabashed promotion of Duff's image." Later that year, Duff played one of the 12 children of Steve Martin and Bonnie Hunt in the family film Cheaper by the Dozen, a remake of the 1950 film, which remains her highest grossing film to date, despite not-so-complimentary reviews of Duff's performance. Slant Magazine reviewer Nick Schager wrote that Duff "does nothing more than look perky and stylish."

Duff also made several guest appearances in television shows which included the role of a makeup salesperson in a 2003 episode of George Lopez; she later reappeared in the show in 2005 as Kenzie, a feminist poet friend of the character Carmen (Masiela Lusha). In 2003, she also portrayed one of The Shangri-Las opposite her sister Haylie in season two of American Dreams, while in 2005, she played a classmate and idolizer of the title character in Joan of Arcadia.

In July 2004, a 16-year-old Duff began dating Good Charlotte singer Joel Madden, who was then 25 years of age. After a long period of tabloid speculation, Duff's mother Susan announced their relationship in a June 2005 interview for Seventeen magazine. In November 2006, Duff and Madden broke up. The same year, Duff's parents separated after 22 years of marriage. She wrote about the pain caused by the separation in her songs "Stranger" and "Gypsy Woman" for her fourth studio album, Dignity.

In 2005, Duff followed her self-titled album with her first compilation album titledMost Wanted, which comsisted of three new songs, songs from her previous two albums, and remixes.[38] Most Wanted received mostly negative reviews from critics, who deemed the release as premature, stating that Duff did not have enough material to warrant a compilation. However, new songs "Wake Up" (which was written and composed by Duff's then-boyfriend Joel Madden and his brother Benji, both members of Good Charlotte), "Beat of My Heart" and "Break My Heart" received favorable comments; critics believed that their dance-oriented sound stood out from the rest of the album. Most Wanted debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, becoming Duff's second number one in the United States, and became her third number one debut in Canada. It sold over two hundred thousand copies within its first week of release, and was certified platinum by the RIAA a month after its release. Duff followed the international success of the album and its singles by embarking on her first worldwide concert tour to support the album. Titled the Still Most Wanted Tour, the tour began in July 2005 and ran through September of 2006. In 2006, an Italy-only compilation, 4ever Hilary Duff, was released alongside an exclusive DVD, due to Italian fans not getting as many of the normal releases of her albums pressed in the country. Rejoining forces with her sister, Duff also recorded a cover version of Madonna's "Material Girl" for the soundtrack to their 2006 movie Material Girls.

In 2009, she starred in two independent drama films. The first, as the title role of a young suicidal and rebellious teen in According to Greta, received mixed reviews; Andrew Barker of Variety magazine criticized Duff's "child star" approach to acting and wanted her to stay away from teen parts. However, Los Angeles Times critic Robert Abele wrote that her attempt to "transform her bright-eyed wholesomeness into rebellious snark" in Greta "is a valiant one." The second, as a narcissistic seductress in What Goes Up, also received mixed reviews. Brian Lowry of Variety magazine stated that Duff's performance "amounts to a near-adult role" yet labeled her role, and the film in general, "confused."

Duff was also meant to star as Bonnie Parker in a 2009 independent remake of Bonnie and Clyde titled The Story of Bonnie and Clyde. Her co-star, slated to be appearing as Clyde Barrow, was Kevin Zegers. However, in 2011, it was announced that Duff and Zegers were dropped from the cast due to scheduling conflicts.

In 2010, Duff starred in the ABC Family television film Beauty & the Briefcase, in which she plays a fashion magazine columnist who writes about her dating struggles in the city. The film had a rating of 2.4 million viewers.

Her most recent credits include Raven Halfacre, the teenage daughter of a promiscuousalcoholic mother, in the 2011 drama film Bloodworth, of which Los Angeles Timesreviewer Sheri Linden thought she "acquits herself well" despite not warming to the film.The Examiner also wrote that the "biggest surprise performance [in the film] probably belongs to Hilary Duff." She also played Shasta O'Neil, a sexy high school senior, in the Polish brothers' comedy Stay Cool (2011) in which she co-starred with Winona Ryder, Mark Polish, Sean Astin, Chevy Chase, and Jon Cryer to neither much critical nor commercial avail. In 2012, she appeared in the independent film She Wants Me,directed by Rob Margolies, as a well-known starlet, Kim Powers, who enters a love triangle.

In August 2012, Duff signed a deal with 20th Century Fox to develop a television comedy in which she would star and which she would produce. In early 2013, Duff guest starred in the television shows Raising Hope[93] and the tenth season finale of Two and a Half Men. She also lent her voice to an animated movie named Wings,together with Jesse McCartney and Josh Duhamel. By July 2013, Duff had already finished filming the movie Flock of Dudes, which is slated for a 2014 release.

In October 2011, Duff mentioned plans of a possible new album to E! Online. In January 2012, she confirmed, through her official website and Twitter, that she had begun recording that album.

In an August 2013 interview with Idolator.com, Duff stated that the songs recorded in 2012 would not make it to the final version of her upcoming album, as she did not like their sound. She also mentioned how interested she was in making anEDM-driven record. It was confirmed in the interview that Duff had already begun recording brand new material. For now, no official release date for the album had been announced.
