Maelee Woodworth-Actor, Singer, Musician

I’m a deceptively subtle

powerhouse of a leading actor. I’m drawn to

the beautiful mess of the human condition

— the characters that are too much — yet

never enough. Think Rosamund Pike’s

versatility with Elizabeth Taylor’s intensity

and seduction. I won’t just play the

character, I’ll make sure to lure you from the

wreckage that lives within.

About me

Hey you, my name is Maelee Woodworth. I’m

an actress currently training at NYU’s Tisch

School of the arts. I remember when I was

about five years old watching Hannah

Montana, I thought to myself “this is what I

want to do for the rest of my life.” From that

point on, I started immersing myself in the

arts. I played classical piano from the age of

five and graduated the CMAT testing by

the age of fourteen. I also started dancing at

Li’s Ballet Studio around the time I started

playing piano. Around the age of nine, I

joined the Grammy Award winning National

Children’s Chorus as a soprano and

toured the world with them, performing at

world class concert halls. But nothing

seemed to fulfill me the way acting

does. So in high school I joined the drama

program, and started my journey to

becoming a professional actor. And now

here I am, in New York, pursuing little

Maelee’s dream.
