ZOEY SIDWELL -

MISSY ARRMITAGE (GET OUT MOM)

Zoey, whose real name is unpronounceable to most, was born in Israel to a Moroccan mother and Polish father.  Unlike most actors, Zoey discovered acting by accident.  It's a long, sad story involving dark times, an open call, and triumph over adversity. Except that it's not all that long.  Or sad.  Or all that triumphant, for that matter.  The accident part is 100% true, though.

 

In her spare time, Zoey pets other people's dogs, spends quality time with her favorite human (her nephew),  and waves at bad drivers from the comfort of her tiny, fuel-efficient car.
