Hilary Duff overwhelmingly captured the attention and affection of millennial fans on the Disney Channel's "Lizzie McGuire" over two decades ago. The series joined "Even Stevens" as a refreshing tween sitcom complete with middle school drama and brother-sister feuds. This was a moment in time before "Hannah Montana" or "High School Musical" or "Camp Rock." In fact, Duff is widely considered the Disney Channel's first pop star, first delighting devoted fans with her debut album "Santa Claus Lane" at the height of her "Lizzie" fame in 2002.

While promoting "The Lizzie McGuire Movie" in 2003, Duff told reporter Jimmy Carter, "I love working. I have loved [it] since I was a little girl. Like, I did 'The Nutcracker' and I remember being onstage just being like, 'Oh my gosh.' ... I loved the audience." The audience loves her right back. These days, Hilary Duff is thriving in her 30s, particularly on television, and she's just as celebrated now as she was all those years ago. Let's take a look at her accomplishments and personality traits throughout each chapter of her life.
