Biography
After being crowned Miss Teen USA in 2004, Shelley Hennig was awarded a full scholarship to The New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts, where she fell in love with acting. She worked relentlessly for two years to hone her natural talent. Two months prior to graduation, Hennig was vacationing in Los Angeles when she received a last-minute audition and landed the role of the feisty character Stephanie Johnson on NBC's long-running hit daytime series Days of Our Lives. For her role in the series, she earned two Daytime Emmy Award nominations for Outstanding Younger Actress in a Drama Series.
After departing Days of Our Lives in 2011, Hennig entered into her first pilot season. Within a matter of weeks, she landed a leading role on the CW drama The Secret Circle, from executive producer Kevin Williamson (Scream, TV's Dawson's Creek), on which she starred opposite Britt Robertson and Thomas Dekker as Diana Meade, the head of the coven. That same year, Hennig secured a recurring role on the MTV comedy Zach Stone Is Gonna Be Famous, opposite comedian and creator Bo Burnham. In the multi-episode arc, she portrayed Christy Ackerman, the eccentric, camera-loving, high school "it girl." In this role, Hennig was able to showcase her comedic ability.
Since wrapping The Secret Circle, Hennig has guest starred on the critically acclaimed FX drama Justified, as Jackie Nevada, Timothy Olyphant's love interest; the CBS sitcom Friend Me, from executive producers Eric and Kim Tannenbaum (TV's Two and a Half Men), alongside Nicholas Braun and Christopher Mintz-Plasse; and CBS' highly successful drama Blue Bloods, which stars Tom Selleck, Donnie Wahlberg and Bridget Moynahan.
In 2013, Hennig filmed the indie feature Scout, opposite Nikki Reed, Danny Glover and Jane Seymour. She finished the year off strong, landing a recurring role as "werecoyote" Malia Tate on MTV's hit series Teen Wolf, which soon led to a series regular role. Hennig also appeared in Ouija or in the coming-of-age indie feature Still Life, opposite Carter Jenkins and Matt Shively.
