Allison Guinn BIO

Allison Guinn was born in East Tennessee on Christmas Day. She grew up in the tiny mountain town of Erwin with a church on every corner and a train whistle punctuating every event. Her Granny Daisy Dean taught her how to sing, and was where she developed her "dark" sense of humor. She graduated East Tennessee State University (where Bluegrass, Storytelling, or Nascar Management are among the choices of major) with a theatre degree and headed to New York City to attend Circle in the Square Acting School. After spending the first year terrified, she became acclimated to the city and went on to pursue acting professionally. She has had some luck being in the Broadway and West End productions of Hair which won the 2009 Tony Award for Best Revival, and most recently the 2014-2015 Broadway Revival of On The Town. Her television credits includes: The upcoming season 4 of "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" , "Inside Amy Schumer", "The Knick" and "Boardwalk Empire". Allison also plays the Autoharp, was a featured artist on the cover of "Autoharp Quarterly Magazine", and has had the pleasure of writing the jingle for "D'Aigle Autoharps". Allison is also an award winning 4-H Biscuit Baker.
