Cherilyn Fontaine
- Actress
Born in Queens, New York City on June 28th, 1971. Relocated to South Farmingdale
on Long Island, NY at the age of 5 and remained up until the age of 15
when the family moved to upstate New York to live in a small township
in the Adirondack State Park region, just outside of the popular summer
tourist vacation area of Lake George, New York. At the age of 16,
Cherilyn entered college and while originally studying Radio and
Television Broadcast Communications, Cherilyn also took a class in
Theater where she studied Theatrical Movement, Makeup, and Lighting.
While in college, Cherilyn had a morning radio show on the college's
radio station and also cut commercial spots for several of the local
commercial stations in the area that needed talented voice work. Over
time Cherilyn left the broadcasting scene and pursued a career as a
"regular Joe" but the bug had already bitten Cherilyn a long time ago
and the venom was down deep. In 2003, Cherilyn knew she could no longer
just be an everyday person and decided to pursue a career that led down
the path that she is currently involved in, including various aspects
of entertainment whether it be in front of the camera or behind the
scenes, the entertainment industry is now officially +1.
Cherilyn has accepted a volunteer position offering up advice whenever possible as a modeling mentor and showing others that you do not have to conform to the norm and fit inside the mold in order to pursue your dreams.
