Former Salt Lake City mayor Ted Wilson has worshipped in the Federal Heights meetinghouse since he and his family moved to the Arlington Hills part of Salt Lake City, Utah, nearly a quarter of a century ago, back when Ted was Salt Lake's mayor. It is also the meetinghouse where Elizabeth Smart's family worships and where Ed Smart, Elizabeth's father, also used to worship as a kid. This building with so many connections has now become the headquarters of the search for Elizabeth Smart.

Smart is a friendly but quiet girl, one who ran unsuccessfully for student-body president last year and always participated in school activities, Orr said.

"She was really sweet. She would say 'hi' to anybody she saw in the halls," eighth-grader Amy Hernandez said. If there were a few minutes left at the end of class, Smart would finish her homework early or pull out a book to read, Hernandez said.

Francis' French teacher often told her seventh graders to follow Smart's example, because Smart "was academically perfect in French," Francis said.

Smart plays the harp, sings in the school's choir and excels in class, earning a place in Bryant's accelerated learning program.

"She always told you that you looked good that day," classmate Tiffany Morris said. "I just hope she's safe and hope she comes back soon."

She was an accomplished harpist, and was involved in acting and sports.

Note the "acting." Haven't heard anything discussed about her interest and involvment in acting. One of the films of her regularly shown on TV, shows her in a play or skit of some sort. It might be interesting to know who she met or associated with while in plays, etc.
