Life goes on for Emmy-nominated Sarah Drew. A pivotal American character actress, Drew is perhaps best known for playing the well-loved Dr April Kepner in the medical drama “Grey’s Anatomy.” After nine phenomenal seasons on the show, Drew made her departure and her career has soared to dizzying new heights ever since.

With foundations in starring in plays and community theatre, Drew secured her debut role while still in high school. Now one of the most recognisable faces on television, Drew is building a lasting legacy that will impact audiences for years to come.
Drew’s directional debut drew high praise from fans and critics alike. The six-part short-form series “Grey’s Anatomy: B Team” which focuses on the medical drama’s latest intern class, earned Drew her Emmy nomination. A rising producer and director, Drew is cementing herself as a pivotal voice in the new wave of artists. Before her days starring in the hospital, Drew played the iconic character of Kitty in the smash HBO series “Mad Men.” Other acting credits include “Supernatural,” “Glee,” and “Private Practice.” The war drama “Indivisible” saw Drew debut as an Executive Producer, as well as starring as the leading lady Heather Turner.
Outside of her day job, Drew is an active role model on her various social media platforms. Positive and encouraging, Drew is a leading voice to her 5 million followers. With a range of projects in the works, as well as creating radio plays for the iconic LA Theatre Works, Drew will undoubtedly continue to raise the profile of her art form for the next generation.
