ALLISYN SNYDER

Allisyn Snyder launched her career in the entertainment industry at 4 years old (as Allisyn Arm). Allisyn worked steadily, with TV appearances including Friends, Strong Medicine, Judging Amy, and Still Standing. At the age of 11, she landed the series regular position of Zora in Disney Channel's Sonny With A Chance, followed by its spin off, So Random!, a children's live audience sketch comedy show. Allisyn went on to play the mousy oddball Heather Wilmore in all four seasons of NBC's A.P. Bio opposite Glenn Howerton and Patton Oswalt.

 

Her childhood acting career morphed into a passion for working behind the camera, and Allisyn began studying cinematography at Glendale CC after graduating at the age of 15. At 17, she wrote sketches for AwesomenessTV, with several airing on Nickelodeon. At 18, Allisyn created YouTube personality Astrid Clover, assisted by Joey Luthman and Allisyn's now-husband Dylan Snyder, releasing 350 original episodes over seven years. At 19, Allisyn began writing and producing films alongside Dylan Snyder, forming Watch The Footage Productions. Her directorial debut, the queer screen-life horror film Howdy, Neighbor! had its Los Angeles premiere at the historic TCL Chinese Theatre as a part of Screamfest 2023.

 

Growing up with an active lifestyle, Allisyn has been trained in trapeze, aerial silks, dance, kickboxing, and roller derby. She is a certified Advanced Open Water (AOW) scuba diver and Nitrox diver with a lifetime of swimming lessons and ocean experience. She is a prolific artist, with her creations invited to gallery showings since she was 15 years old. Allisyn produces live theater and immersive art events in Los Angeles with the Factory Superstars artist collective. She is also an editor-in-chief and cartoonist for the collective's publication, Factory Magazine, which launched in Spring of 2024.
