She also has two half-sisters and two half-brothers from her mother's second marriage.[4] Her mother is of Polish descent and her father has German, Scottish and Irish ancestry.[5] Bell stated that she did not like her first name at the age of four. Bell's mother convinced her to go by her middle name of Anne instead; she used the name Annie until high school.[6] Bell once broke both her wrists at the same time playing street hockey with friends.[7] Just before her freshman year of high school, Bell's parents decided to pull her from the public school system.[8] She then attended Shrine Catholic High School in nearby Royal Oak, where she took part in the drama and music club.[9] During her time at the school, she won the starring role in the school's 1997 production of The Wizard of Oz, as Dorothy Gale and also appeared in productions of Fiddler on the Roof (1995), Lady Be Good (1996), and Li'l Abner (1998).

Created by Rob Thomas, the series starred Bell as the seventeen-year-old anti-establishment high school student/detective. Bell drew on the parallels between the character of Veronica and her own life, since Bell's parents had divorced and her best friend had also died.[12] The series earned acclaim from television critics, as did Bell's performance. Some critics asserted that her performance was overlooked, and deserved consideration for an Emmy Award.[16][17][18] Aside from working on Veronica Mars, Bell starred in Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical, reprising the role she played in the short-lived 2001 off-broadway musical. The musical was a spoof of the 1936 exploitation film of the same name. Reefer Madness: The Movie Musical debuted on the Showtime network on April 16, 2005.

A remake of the Japanese horror film Kairo, the film grossed US$27.9 million worldwide,;[19] however it garnered negative response from critics. Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter commented, "despite the starring presence of Kristen Bell, [the] young actress has far less interesting material to work with here than she does as [the character] `Veronica Mars In May 2016, Bell revealed that she has struggled with and received treatment for depression, anxiety and ADHD. She said, "It’s important for me to be candid about this so people in a similar situation can realize that they are not worthless and that they do have something to offer
