Sylvia Jefferies is a Charleston, SC native and had her first role, and first Jäegermeister shot, with director and star Dennis Hopper, in "Chasers"(1993). She later worked with him again as a stand-in for Elizabeth Shue in "Leo"(2002), where she met Sam Shepard and followed up making two more films with him, "The Notebook"(2004), and "Walker Payne"(2006). Known for her fearlessness, Sylvia is a character actor who is best known as Tracy in "Eastbound and Down"(HBO) with Danny McBride, as Jolene in "Nashville"(ABC) as Hayden Panettiere's mother, and as a propositioning addict in "Shaft"(2019). Joining the horror community in Rob Zombie's "Halloween 2"(2009) as Misty Dawn, a.k.a. the girl who rips Michael Myers' mask off, she has also been in John Gulager's "Piranha 3DD"(2012), and, her favorite role, Heather Starship Galen in "Three From Hell" (2019), the sequel to Rob Zombie's cult classic, "The Devil's Rejects". When she's not on set, Sylvia is an active knife thrower/collector and archer, volunteers her time with many charities, and, along with her son, is learning to fly.
