A Los Angeles native, Devin Sidell graduated cum laude from Princeton University and then moved back to L.A. to pursue a career in film and television, appearing as Teen Lois on "Malcolm in the Middle" and recurring as Abigail Stevens on "The O.C." She won an L.A. Weekly Award for her performance in "Land of the Tigers" at Sacred Fools Theatre and was nominated for both LADCC and Ovation Awards for the musical "The Behavior of Broadus," co-produced by Center Theatre Group. Devin has appeared in shows at the Kirk Douglas Theatre as well as on The Broad Stage opposite Josh Gad and Bryce Dallas Howard. While attending Princeton, Devin trained in acting with New York director Roger Babb and NY Gorilla Rep Shakespeare Company's Christopher Carter Sanderson. She also trained in modern dance with NY teachers Ze'eva Cohen and Dianne Sichel, taking a masterclass with Bill T. Jones. Since returning to Los Angeles, she has worked with Brian Reise, Risa Bramon Garcia, and Ani Avetyan. In addition to appearances on "Ray Donovan" opposite Liev Schreiber, the viral singing criminals cold open on "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" (yes, that cold open!), "NCIS," Lena Waithe's "Twenties," and B.J. Novak's "The Premise," Devin appears in Rob Zombie's horror film "31" (Sundance Film Festival) and recurs as a sketch performer on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" A carrier of the BRCA1 gene mutation with a family history of ovarian and breast cancers, Devin decided in 2017 to undergo both a preventative double mastectomy and a preventative hysterectomy/oophorectomy, earning her the label of "previvor." She is in post production on the dark comedy feature film LADY about her experience. She is a proud member of the Television Academy.
