‏Jenny Hale‏

She took her first steps into the entertainment world when she began violin lessons in 1994 under the tutelage of Celeste Lake. During this time, Jenny was a member of the symphony, concert, and competition orchestra. In 1998, she learned how to play the cello, but abandoned the instrument, favoring the more affordable and lighter-weight violin. She continued studying and playing the violin under the instruction of Kendall Hastings. During that time, she was a member of several symphony, concert, and competition orchestras. She also played in the pit orchestra, which accompanied productions including Fiddler on the Roof and Oliver.

In the summer of 2002, she began her studies at Dominican University in Illinois where she specialized in secondary education and received endorsements in mathematics and French, the latter of which she had already been studying since 1996. Not completely abandoning her music career, it was also during this time that she became a part of the Rosary Chapel music ensemble for special events. She also freelanced, playing in a music group for local weddings.

It was also at university when she and her sister professionally joined forces, the likes of which continues to this day. In 2005, Jenny walked in her first fashion show, modeling a piece her sister designed, which earned her the "Up-and-Coming Designer" award. While Jenny has since modeled in over 80 fashion shows in Chicago for other designers like Calvin Tran and Borris Powell, she continues to work with her sister on a variety of projects. Every year since 2009, she has exhibition modeled at several comic and entertainment conventions, helping showcase her sister's movie-replicated costume designs, which have been featured on several media sites including NBC and MTV Geek.

During the fall of 2011, Jenny caught the acting bug when, through her fashion industry connections, she booked her first background artist role as a Daily Planet employee in Zack Snyder's blockbuster movie, "Man of Steel". That same year, she began training in classical ballet at the Joffery Ballet's Academy of Dance. Her skills helped her land the role of a dancing nymph in Mozart's Die Zauberflöte (the Magic Flute) at the Lyric Opera of Chicago. During the same season, she also played an Ethiopian slave in Verdi's Aida. In the winter of 2012, she teamed up with her sister yet again, this time to work on Rogue Lumen Productions' first feature-length independent film, "Dorothy Marie and the Unanswered Questions of the Zombie Apocalypse", in which she played a reanimated zombie, her first feature role.

Since then, she's appeared in the second season of "Boss", playing Jackie's quirky assistant; "Underemployed", playing a coffeehouse hipster; "Doubt" and Mind Games (2013), playing a businesswoman; and most recently, Neil Burger's "Divergent", playing an Erudite lab tech and assistant to the villainous Jeanine Matthews, played by Kate Winslet.
