Claire Wellesley "Multi talented, ambitious and highly sensitive" is how director Walt Price describes this budding star. Who after wallowing in what she called "pilot hell", rose to Hollywood's A-List with a series of box office hits.

Born in Masattau, Wisconsin- the multi talented Claire entered show business at the age of 14, with an appearance on Star Search in which she sang the Neil Diamond classic "Sweet Caroline". Her singing brought her to New York, where she studied acting and performance art at the Fallingo school of performing artists. Singing under the stage name Shauna C., Claire performed in many Greenwich Village clubs to help pay the bills. She landed her first major role as the part of Lt. Lisa Rogers on the TV show Intergalatic Space Voyagers. Even though the show was short-lived, Claire began to gain a cult following and was able to use it to launch a film career. After roles in the slasher films Habachi 3 and The Moil, Claire caught the eye of legendary horror director Niles Broughton who cast her in Assembly of Death, which would go on to be one of the biggest grossing films of all time. With her role as Stephanie Sanders - the naive editor's assistant - Claire would become a star.

Assembly was followed by leading roles in Alexander Trujillo's The Bleu Merengue and Nick Blade's thriller Illegal Blonde. Other recent films have included Parental Indiscretion and the French and Indian War drama Fields of the Forgotten with Joey Lawrence.

The Old Mill (aka The Fires of Home) is Claire's first film with director Walt Price. She also stars in the upcoming Desert Heat with screen legend Richard Hill. One of the most downloaded actresses on the Internet, Claire values honesty.
