‘Sometimes life can bring you high up and sometimes drown you to the bottom of the sea with all the emotions and waves of life’s currents. But we all have to stand up tall and strong. Turn our back to pain and anger and open our hearts for the better things that are waiting for us. Move on and believe in the positive side of life and love. And hope that we will find trust and truth as we walk on… To the future.’

My name is Florence Montgomery. I’m known as Front Montgomery in Thailand where my work consists of commercials, magazine modeling, runway modeling, drama and sitcom TV series, theatrical stage shows, movies, game shows and TV host.
“In Front of View” is unlike anything I have ever even imagined doing. It is a full 360-degree Virtual Reality travel show where my daughter, Leonie, and I transport you to the places and experiences we have together. Our viewers can see all around, above, and below us as if they were actually right in Front of us. They get a Front row seat! So, that is absolutely different from modeling and acting. It is produced by ReelTime VR, one of the leading technology and content pioneers in Virtual Reality. It is truly a new emerging media that is causing the largest shift in how information and entertainment are viewed. Some of the places we have been to before and would like to share with our viewers, and there are also places that are going to be totally new for both of us and we are going to let you see it as if it was In Front of (You) View.
Wow….ummmm since my early years at about 7. Long enough that it became a part of my life
If I remember correctly my first job was a stand-in for Milo. I would be the girl who dove into the pool and swam to the other end of the pool, but when the girl popped up, it was a Thai girl. I was a pretty good swimmer for a girl less than 10 years old. And I guess being half Thai half American wasn’t what they actually wanted as a face for their commercials.
(Smiles) How did I feel? Hmmmm…. It was a lot of fun. Because I got to swim, which I truly enjoyed, and being able to work while having fun was an amazing experience. So I thought I’d just keep on doing it. It all came naturally to me.
My stepmother actually enlisted me in CD modeling agency in Thailand for she was also working with them. That is where I started with most of my commercials, commercial Ad posters, magazine Ads, and a movie. Being called in for casting during my school years became a very normal thing in my life then.
After being a model I guess you keep on moving up the steps. So from modeling, I had my first Theatrical Stage Show at 22 years old and then the next thing I knew I was contacted for the first TV series with Channel 3 the following year.
Amazingly Fun Memorable Times
Every single job I had seemed like a stepping stone all along the way and meant a lot to me and my career. For modeling, I think being on the cover of Kaew magazine changed the look of me as a model and made me a sexy star. Then in show business, I think I started to become more known in my part of a Dracula in a doll’s body. The series Mae Nak Pra Nakorn was a comedy, and wherever I went people would call me Choo – the name of the character I played. Since it was a comedy I felt very comfortable playing the part, for I felt like it came naturally and I read every single page of the scripts of everyone. The director even teased me that I seemed like I was getting ready for an exam. But it played out. I was known.
It’ll probably sound like a mommy advice but I would say to do your best in school. 12 years isn’t that long. Not only will you make your parents and everyone around you proud but you will be proud of yourself for your hard work too. Go to college and choose the major of your dreams. Like I teach my daughter, do what makes you happy and at the same time will make you money. Live happily and don’t be a burden to yourself and others. Love yourself and let the love spill out till you can share the love with everyone else around you. Life is an adventure so make it worth the trip.
Yes! absolutely everyone loved and supported me in my work
Only my eldest sister. She was in a few Ad commercials and also a movie. But she finally decided it wasn’t what she wanted and continued in her own path.
After giving it a break for five years I actually think I am ready to jump back in front of the camera and this time I’m not doing it alone, I’m tagging my daughter, Leonie, along with me in this show. I would like to see my daughter and I able to do things that we enjoy together as a family, and explore the world and at the same time being able to share our adventures with everyone.
I was just a regular student going to school.
When they would write gossip news, I would have to just believe that people who know me would know better that none of that is true and the people that are sincere will actually ask rather than just believe in whatever they read in gossip news. There are times when I wonder, why do some people feel that way about me or why do they think that way about me. Some people don’t even know me or have never spent time with me. Some people just read and think that that news is real when they have no truth in it at all. Stuff that makes you feel sad and down about why some people can be so negative and you just don’t know why and what can you do about it.
I found my answer to this and every time this situation occurs I just think that “You cannot CHANGE how other people want to feel or think about you, for it is in THEIR mind and heart, but you certainly can CHANGE the way you feel or think of a certain situation because it is in YOUR mind and heart.” (So be positive and let the negative be with them) And move on with life because there are a lot of better things to do than to dwell with people and situations you can’t change.
Being able to do what you love and make other people love what you do. Success comes when you go to places around the world and know that your fans recognize you and that you are remembered in many good ways.
Yes, this is probably my first online interview but there certainly are articles of me posted for public viewing but mostly in Thai.
I would definitely like to thank my family for supporting me and believing in me. And everyone along the way. CD Modeling who started me out. Every single magazine, runway, TV show and every single job I did out there. I really appreciate everyone that I have worked with and worked for because without the people behind the scenes there would have never been a Front Montgomery. You guys are my heroes. Thank you for being a part of my life and my precious memories. And of course, thank you to ReelTime VR for creating such a compelling new media and for believing in my daughter Leonie and me.
