Carolyn Shelby(I)
- Writer
- Script and Continuity Department
- Actress
Carolyn was born in Long Beach, California and spent her teenage years
singing and acting at Palm Springs High. She moved to Los Angeles to
attend college, graduating from the UCLA Theatre Arts Department in
1972, with an acting specialization. After several years working as an
actress, she discovered her true love... screenwriting. Pairing up with
her husband Christopher Ames, they worked as a professional
screenwriting team for nearly thirty years. During that time, they
wrote for both TV and feature, had grand adventures and a few stray
seconds they would rather forget. Unfortunately, ageism started to
become an issue for them as they ventured into their late 40's. Reality
programming gave ageism a major assist in leading Carolyn and Chris to
move into secondary careers.
Carolyn went into financial services, intrigued by the prospect of finding a way to adapt traditional financial planning to the unique needs of those in feast and famine lifestyles (i.e., Show Biz). Having worked for several of the major financial entities in the business, she eventually wearied of being captive to only their product line.
In 2005, Carolyn become an independent broker and, since then, has been helping her clients in and out of Show Biz to protect and grow their assets.
