Maylyn Atkinson

Maylyn Atkinson is a performer based between Philadelphia and Atlanta whose resume reads like three careers rolled into one — actress, vocalist, and model. A Berklee College of Music graduate with a background in musical theatre and studio recording, she's shared stages with Bon Jovi, LL Cool J, and Puff Daddy, and fronted her own band as lead singer for cruise lines and live audiences across the Northeast. On screen, she's held her own opposite JJ Williams and Bernadette Stanis, appeared in Halle Berry's Bruised, played Elena in the independent short film Stork (dir. Khiray Richards), and stepped into the role of Katherine Johnson in a stage adaptation inspired by Hidden Figures. Her modeling work spans print campaigns, album covers, and international runways, including fashion and hair shows in Japan. A trained mover and vocalist with formal instruction from John Casablancas, Maylyn brings runway precision and stage command to every role. Her special skills sheet is its own pitch: fluent in Tagalog, conversational in Japanese, three dialects (British, Filipino, Russian), boxing, piano, and a striking resemblance to both Halle Berry and Kerry Washington.
