CAST BIOS

LINDSEY SHAW (Rachel) – Lindsey Marie Shaw was born on May 10, 1989 in Lincoln, NE. Raised primarily by her mother, Lindsey’s sense of humor sparkled from an early age, from neighborhood picnics to school plays. She participated in many pageants and talent shows. She signed with various agents for local print and commercial work. Eventually, she was invited to try her luck in L.A. during ‘pilot season.’ Always “going with the flow,” Lindsey and her mother relocated to L.A. in January 2002. The gamble paid off when Shaw landed her first major gig on Nickelodeon’s “Ned’s Declassified.” The show ran for three years, followed up by series regular roles on the CW’s “Aliens in America” and ABC Family’s “10 Things I Hate About You.” Lindsey currently recurs as Paige McCullers on the ABC Family hit “Pretty Little Liars.” Her work on PLL has made her a strong advocate and ally of the LGBT community. She is also recurring on MTV’s “Faking It,” and previously recurred on “Suburgatory” for ABC. Shaw has made a living as an actress in L.A. for over 13 years. She is an avid reader, loves astrology, playing tennis, and her dog, Gypsy!
