Shelli Misoyianis was born in Ravenna, Ohio but grew up in Vincentown, NJ. She began writing short stories and songs by the age of 8, eventually penning her first children's book, "USA", at age 11 and her second, "The Unknown Breed", at age 20. She achieved a few publications of her stories, artwork, and poetry in "Creative Kids" magazine before she was even a teenager. Nabbing her first talent agent at 14, she was blessed with the opportunity to compete in the Miss Teen Garden State Pageant 1990. Trained in commercials and theater, Shelli spent five straight years (1987-1991) writing, directing, and starring in her own plays for her town Grange Christmas program. She made it a point to get as many other kids involved in these projects as possible to bring great family entertainment to her audiences. Throughout the 90's, Shelli achieved much success with poetry, garnering many anthology publications by the International Library of Poetry, Iliad Press, and Famous Poets Society. She has received many award certificates for her work and even accepted a medal from the Famous Poets Society for Poet of the Year 1999. In 2002, she finally made it onto her first movie set as an extra for "Jersey Girl", starring Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, and Liv Tyler. A year later, she co-starred in the independent comedy feature, "Protesters", which was slated to tour film festivals in 2006 and is available on DVD and video from Silver Spring Studios. Shelli then was signed in 2004 to co-star in the upcoming sci-fi/fantasy feature, "The Instant Messenger", the first of a trilogy to be released worldwide by Silver Spring Studios. In 2005, realizing a lifelong dream, Shelli teamed up with Hawk Entertainment Studios to begin work on her debut album, yet to be titled, and has now penned her first screenplay, "Afflicted Hearts", an emotionally powerful love story in which she will star. This film is loosely based on her life and will be respectfully dedicated to murdered child actress, Judith Barsi (1978-1988). As of 2009, Shelli is getting ready to co-produce an independent action/thriller called "Blood Ball", written by music and film producer Rob Hawk.
