Hailing from Huntsville, Alabama, Deborah Ann Ryan (Born May 13, 1993), known professionally by her nickname Debby Ryan, is an American actress and singer-songwriter.

At the beginning of Debby’s acting career, she started performing in professional theaters at the age of seven and was soon discovered by Disney Channel through a nationwide search that she had taken part in several TV and movie series. However, one of her most predominant roles that Debby had been a part of is in the Disney original series Jessie, which first aired on September 30, 2011, and ended on October 16, 2015.

Aside from working in the film industry, Debby took a step back and started to pursue music, which she eventually achieved by creating an indie folk band named The Never Ending, formed in 2013 with six members, including Debby as the band’s frontman and songwriter.

Despite this, the band would, unfortunately, break up after three years of releasing music and performing, which led to Debby reprising her acting career by starring in several movies and television series on Netflix.
