Melody Hollis

I spent the first ten years of my life in Chicago where I made my professional stage debut at six years old in the Goodman Theatre's world premiere of Dollhouse, under the direction of Robert Falls. I was fortunate to work at many regional theaters including Marriott Lincolnshire and Theatre at the Center, as well as performing in 2 National Tours and the Original Broadway Company of Irving Berlin's White Christmas.

I spent the next ten years of my life in Los Angeles, where I added a dozen National commercials, and film and television work to my resume. Some of my favorite appearances were in Criminal Minds, A Golden Christmas, and Vice. I continued my stage work starring in the title role of Annie, as well as the classics; Ah Wilderness, Summer and Smoke, and the musical Baby. I was one of the youngest performers ever to have a one-woman show which I performed in several venues in Los Angeles and Palm Springs.

I was living in New York before the pandemic but now I am a new resident of Charlotte, North Carolina! I am a proud member of Actors Equity and SAG/AFTRA, a member/mentor of the Entertainment Community Fund Looking Ahead program and I've been a serving member of the SAG-AFTRA young performers committee for several years. Stay tuned to see what I'm up to next!
