Amy Sheehan

Amy Sheehan was born in Seoul, South Korea and adopted at 9 months to an Italian-American dance teacher and Irish-American musician. Despite popular belief "Sheehan" is an Irish name while many hopefuls have tried to 'asian-ize' it by calling her Amy shee-HAN. She grew up in the wee small state of Rhode Island, home to the Mr. Potato head and Family Guy's Stewie Griffin. She left 'Lil Rhody to attend NYU's Tisch School of the Arts in New York where she trained at Atlantic Theater Company and Stonestreet Studios. She's appeared in senior productions both at Atlantic and Playwrights Horizons and can be seen playing Timora Rich, a recurring character on the Stonestreet webisode The 47th Floor. She is a proud member of The Attic, a young not-for-profit theater company started by her and her peers from Atlantic. Amy also performs locally as a singer-songwriter. She enjoys sketch comedy writing, dance fights, and is very excited to be a new member of The Actor's Project NYC! www.amysheehan.com
