A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Alias:
Kendall Chappelle
Birthplace:
Ann Arbor, Michigan
Born:
July 7, 1991
Kendall Chappell was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan to elementary school teacher, Lauren Chappell, and business owner, Todd Chappell. She has two siblings, Kaylee, an illustrator, and Drew a scuba instructor. Before Kendall became an actress, she stayed busy throughout high school swimming, running track, and played on the women's tennis team. Her summers were spent as a camp counselor at the Ann Arbor YMCA's Camp Algonquian, modeling for local photographers, and playing small roles in student and short films. Once accepted to the University of Michigan for a dual degree in Theater and Art & Design, she began to focus on acting and appeared in such feature length films as David Schwimmer's Trust (2010). The summer after college, Kendall worked locally at a market and beer garden before moving to Los Angeles to pursue acting as a career. She immediately scored two lead roles in short films like Gisele (2014) which lead to future projects after receiving excellent feedback. Kendall continues to gain attention through her work and auditions which allows her to always have a project at hand.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
