Elisha Henig
- Actor
- Writer
- Music Artist
Elisha grew up in Portland, OR. His love for acting was sparked at age 8 during a Shakespeare acting class where he made his debut performance as the limping, villainous Richard III. His initial professional roles were at local Portland theaters, including a co-lead role in the original play 'The Snowstorm' for which he won the prestigious Portland Best Young Performer Drammy Award at the tender age of 10.
Drunk with success, Elisha decided to try his luck in Hollywood and proceeded to squat at his uncle's condo in, relatively speaking, nearby Calabasas. He started appearing in TV guest roles, including memorable appearances in Grey's Anatomy and guest lead roles in Adam Ruins Everything, Mr. Robot and Ramy, as well as the young Twitch celebrity Pootie Shoe in Rob McElhenney's gaming comedy Mythic Quest on AppleTV+. He was a series regular on the ABC comedy Alex, Inc. playing Zach Braff's son, and on season 2 of The Sinner (USA), playing the protagonist role opposite Bill Pullman and Carrie Coon.
Most recently Elisha played a co-lead roles in the cringe comedy The Drop, co-written and directed by Sarah Adina Smith and produced by the Duplass brothers, as well as in two upcoming indie features.
Apart from acting Elisha enjoys reading, writing, playing and writing music, socializing, and pondering life and the universe.
