Who is Kennedy McMann from Nancy Drew? 

Kennedy is an American actress who was once born in Holland, Mich. but grew up in Mesa, Arizona. She was once born on Oct. 30, 1996, so she is simply 26 years old.

She's married.

At the start of 2019, Kennedy took to Instagram to reveal that she is engaged to her now-fiancé. "WE’RE GETTING MARRIED Y’ALL," she wrote along photos of the two as well as the ring on her finger. The couple married in 2020.

She selected performing for a reason.

Kennedy selected acting in an effort to take care of her OCD when she was just 9 years outdated.  

“I got into theater and it changed into therapy for me,” she once said, in keeping with The Cheat Sheet. “At nine I might go to practice session and for those 3 or four hours, I got to replace my mind with someone else’s. It was once one thing where I could escape my issues and have any individual else’s different problems and it used to be this sort of aid to me and changed into one of my treatments.”

She's at all times been a fan of the Nancy Drew personality.

Since she used to be somewhat lady, Kennedy at all times had an admiration for Nancy Drew.

“I come from a really perfect literary family. My mom’s an creator. I grew up reading the books, I played the laptop games all over college," she said. "I used to be, like, hogging the family computer when I used to be a child, after which it just was my computer, when I used to be, like, 19. They’re the Her Interactive Nancy Drew mystery video games. [I solved them] on the hardest level, I had to or else who am I?"

So when the role came up, she knew it was a perfect fit for her. “It’s all very cosmic. If I could have picked one person to portray, it would have been her. It gives me shivers to even say that," Kennedy said, consistent with Cosmopolitan.

Kennedy added, "It can be overwhelming and also just full of love. We have amazing people in our cast and our crew so being with them and doing this with them is just really exciting and lovely and it feels like we’re actively building these memories as we put the show on its feet."
