Personal details
- Professions: Actress
Lynn Favin’s the kind of actor who refuses to stay in one lane—she’s everywhere, honestly. You’ve probably seen her as Holly on CBS’s Elsbeth, but that’s just scratching the surface. She’s all over TV, popping up on NBC, Netflix, HBO Max, Comedy Central, TruTV, Freeform—you name it, she’s probably been there, and if you blinked, you missed her. Oh, and if you’re into Robot Chicken? She voiced seventeen different characters across four seasons. Seventeen! That’s not a typo. Her theater chops are no joke either. She’s starred in three National Theater Tours, racking up Equity credits like it’s just another Tuesday. She’s also a regular on stage with the American Film Institute out in LA. Not to mention, her Shakespeare résumé is stacked—international gigs and all. Education-wise, she’s not messing around: MFA from the Old Vic in the UK, and she trained at Juilliard in NYC. That’s some serious pedigree, right? Comedy fans, don’t worry, she’s got you covered too. She’s worked with The Groundlings in LA and Broadway Comedy Club in NYC—so, yeah, improv is totally in her wheelhouse. And when it comes to commercials, she’s been in spots for everyone from VitaminWater (with Spike Lee directing, flex alert) to Chevy, Amazon Prime, Dunkin’ Donuts, Subway, Blue Moon, the list kinda goes on forever. Repped by Buchwald, Entertainment Lab, Forward Talent, and The Wayne Agency, Lynn is basically a one-woman army in the business.

And then an M.F.A. in Acting from the Old Vic in England—yeah, the same place where some of the biggest names in theater cut their teeth. On top of all that, a double B.A. in Theater and Psychology from Wesleyan University. Kinda makes you feel like a slacker, huh? You can just imagine the kind of dedication it takes to juggle all that coursework and still keep your creative edge sharp. The psychology thing is smart too—actors have to get inside people’s heads, after all. So you’re looking at someone who knows their craft inside and out, from both a technical and a human angle. When you see them on stage or on screen, you know you’re not just watching a performer, but someone who’s lived and breathed this stuff for years.
