Actor. Writer. Painter. Singer.

Artist.

As a multi-faceted artist, Kennedy does it all.

Kennedy Niyah Hill graduated from the University of Southern California in the acclaimed BFA Acting program for Stage, Screen, and New Media. She is a true multi-hyphenate, excelling in acting, writing, singing, and painting (among a slew of other things). She is 1/3 Creator of Fifth Floor Studios - a production company dedicated to telling Black stories for us, by us. Fifth Floor Studios is known for its web series "A Black College Show" which was written by Kennedy. She also plays the lead character "Sage". @fifthfloorstudios on all platforms.

Throughout her life, Kennedy has always been a creative girl. She fell into acting on accident when her art teacher suggested that she audition for the school play, to which she did not know what she was signing up for, but she did know every line in the movie Mean Girls. Since then, she is working towards developing her own Black girl coming of age stories that are far and few on screen - especially ones with Black girls of her complexion. Three of her acting goals are to be cast in a cheerleading film (since she has a background of 7+ years of competitive cheer), to lead a dramatic romantic film, and to be in a movie musical.
