So, who is Sydney Lemmon?
What’s her background?
Sydney Noël Lemmon was born on August 10, 1990, to actors Chris Lemmon and Gina Raymond in Los Angeles, California. Hollywood legend Jack Lemmon is her grandfather. She moved to Connecticut when she was eight, according to Boston University’s CFA magazine, and grew up in Glastonbury. She has two siblings, among whom her brother Jon is also an actor.
“If I felt any pressure, it was probably to stay out of the [entertainment] business,” the 35-year-old told CFA magazine, emphasising how her famous grandfather and parents “would have encouraged me to do just about anything other than [acting]”.
How did she get into acting?
