Sofia Shinas

Greek-Canadian actress Sofia Shinas may be most recognized for her performances in 'The Crow,' the TV series 'The Outer Limits,' and other fantasy-genre works. To her Canadian fans, she is noted for her soft voice, unassuming and accessible nature, and her talent as a singer and songwriter. As a teenage musical talent breaking into the entertainment industry, Shinas quickly emerged as popular vocalist known for writing her own songs. Soon after hitting the airways, she was nominated for a Juno Award for Most Promising Female Vocalist of the Year (1993). The Toronto-area performing artist eventually moved to Los Angeles to showcase her talents on screen. Her music videos had garnered significant praise and attention for more than just her mesmerizing voice, leading to attention from Hollywood casting agents. The multilingual (English, French and Hebrew) brainy beauty picked up a cinematic arts degree from USC film school and immediately added credentials as a writer and producer. While Shinas continues to diversify her brand on screen and in the recording studio, the staunch animal welfare advocate dedicates her free time to caring for her furry family members at home, and uses her celebrity to draw attention to the plight of endangered wildlife species around the world.
