This week we spotlight a versatile and beautiful young actress that first caught our attention on the first episodes of FX’s American Horror Story. Already an industry veteran at nineteen, American actress Shelby Young has begun to make her mark in Hollywood with lead and supporting roles under her belt in numerous film and television projects. Her most recent film venture was none other than the Oscar nominated, David Fincher directed/Aaron Sorkin penned, “The Social Network.”
Alternately praised and hated by soap fans for her current work as the spiteful Kinsey on the legendary NBC property “Days Of Our Lives”, Shelby’s latest project is a large guest-starring role in the critically acclaimed Ryan Murphy/Brad Falchuk created series “American Horror Story”, which premiered in October on FX. Years of commercial, voice, modeling and stage work led Shelby to a recurring role as Jennifer on the CW’s “Everybody Hates Chris”, guest star roles on the new hit MTV series, “Awkward.” along with “Ghost Whisperer” and “Freddie”, and a high profile supporting role alongside Emma Roberts and Aidan Quinn in Universal’s “Wild Child” movie.
Shelby was the original pilot lead for Nickelodeon’s popular “Lazytown” project and has also appeared in the films “Waltzing Anna” & “The Naked Brothers Band Movie”. Shelby has done extensive voice work, from being the “General Mills” girl in New York, where she previously voiced a large number of the Lucky Charms, Trix and Coco Puffs
commercials to ADR work in popular films, such as Mel Gibson’s “Apocalypto”, Wes Craven’s “My Soul ToTake”, “Bridge to Teribithia”, along with many others.
