Shane Kinsman

Shane Kinsman is a talented actor, who along with his twin brother Brent Kinsman, has made quite a mark in the entertainment industry. His remarkable story as an actor began when he was discovered by a talent agent while attending a Los Angeles Dodger game at the age of 4. With no plans of becoming an actor at the time, he and his twin brother Brent were encouraged to begin auditioning as the agent saw great potential. The family decided to give it a go and the Kinsman twins went on their first audition and landed their first job - a national Tylenol commercial. Shortly thereafter, he booked his early breakthrough role in the 2003 blockbuster feature film family comedy Cheaper by The Dozen and the 2005 sequel Cheaper By the Dozen 2, with he and his brother Brent portraying rambunctious twins "Kyle and Nigel Baker," opposite Steve Martin and Bonnie Hunt. He also starred, along with Brent, in the first four seasons of the Emmy Award-winning hit ABC TV comedy-drama series Desperate Housewives as "Porter and Preston Scavo," the twin sons of "Lynnette Scavo" (Felicity Huffman) from 2004 - 2008. In 2008, the twins decided they wanted to take a break from their busy career in acting to focus on family and school. Shane excelled in school, as well as football and baseball, graduating from Maranatha High School in Pasadena, CA in 2016. He then enrolled at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, earning a bachelor's degree in Agricultural Business with a minor in Entrepreneurship, graduating in 2020. Shane and his brother Brent, are excited to continue their careers in acting and are especially passionate about pursuing film and television projects that exemplify authentic wholesome family values. Shane leads an active lifestyle and is a frequent practitioner of weight-lifting, Brazilian Jiu-Jitzu, and yoga. He also pursues other interests including playing guitar, fly fishing, snowboarding and motocross.
