About Heather Allyn

I have over years in Reality Casting with over 45 different projects of all size and scope under my belt, including Emmy Award Winning Competition Shows, two Emmy nominations and seven Artios Award nominations for Excellence in Casting.After 25+ years in the Industry in almost every job from pitch to post, and 10 years in the restaurant industry peppered in, I bring a unique point of view to my current profession of casting. From my years as a Soap Opera writer, I have an excellent sense of story. I was a Development Executive on both buy and sell side so I can relate to the executives with an understanding of not just the directive but the spirit of the directive. From years on set of scripted television I truly understand the art of the possible. I have run casting departments and specialize in team building and morale. Member Casting Society of America
