Biography

Lauren Byrnes is an American actress and writer from the beautiful state of Colorado. Although her childhood was not easy (having bounced around in foster care for several years before settling in with her amazing adopted family), the one constant she always had was working with horses. Over the years, she has become an expert rider and horsemanship. When Lauren is not acting, you can find her riding her horse Harley, all around the L.A. area.

At the age of 11, Lauren fell in love with acting after watching one of the daughters of her foster parents perform in Fiddler on the Roof at school. Soon after, she became involved with theatrical productions both at school and with her local church. After high school, Lauren took a slight detour and headed to Aspen, Colorado. There, she became a snowboard instructor while attending college and working in local productions with Theatre Aspen and Colorado Mountain College.

After a few years living in the mountains, her passion for acting came calling again and she soon moved to L.A. to pursue an acting career. Once in L.A., one of Lauren's goals was to try her hand at as many different jobs on set as she could. And boy has that goal been achieved! She has done everything from being a PA to stand-in, craft services, art department, casting, boom, grips, 2nd Ad, 1st AD and even wrote and directed a commercial! Lauren is excited to see where this next decade (and chapter in her life) will take her. Whether it be acting or writing a screenplay, she loves a good challenge and hard work.
