Biographie
Sue-Lynn is an American film and television actress and stuntwoman. Having lived and worked in Hollywood for over 20 years, she has focused more on stage than screen, landing her first principal role in 2009 at the Burbank Film Festival. A few years later, during an open stunt performers call in Nashville, Paul McCrane hired her for a stunt scene in Nashville season 1, episode 15, titled "When You're Tired of Breaking Other Hearts." Sue-Lynn also appeared in 27 episodes of Nashville, where she gained valuable experience in the workings of a production set.
From a young age, she studied film and television, becoming one of the youngest college entrants of the 1990s, starting at age 11 and earning a degree by 15. Beyond academics, Sue-Lynn grew up in California participating in rodeos, varsity swimming, 4-H, musical theater, ballet, and martial arts. She was raised by hardworking parents: her mother, a nurse who once served in the Singapore Army, and her stepfather, a 35-year California State law officer and U.S. Army veteran.
In 2001, the day after September 11th, Sue-Lynn received a call that would significantly alter her military career path. Traits ingrained in her since childhood surfaced throughout her professional life, opening doors to achievements such as level testing and certification with the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music—founded by Queen Elizabeth—as well as performing country music across the South and modeling in Los Angeles.
Over more than two decades, Sue-Lynn has maintained an active career in film and television, working on over 60 productions in the Southeast in roles ranging from acting and stunt performing to occasional production work. One of her proudest moments was working alongside Robin Williams on one of his final films, Boulevard, during midsummer 2013. Another treasured experience was interning with Roddenberry Productions from 2008 to 2009, where she organized all the Star Trek scripts, helped build the company’s online timeline of Star Trek history, and frequently sent scripts to J.J. Abrams' office. She joined the company just one month before the passing of Majel Barrett Roddenberry, a significant female figure in TV and film history for Sue-Lynn.
Sue-Lynn aspires to continue entertaining audiences worldwide with her stories, craft, and work for many years to come.
