Alias:
Meredith Pedley
Birthplace:
Houston, Texas, USA
Meredith Pyle is a Los Angeles based professional singer, actor, and teacher known for her “vocal chameleon” versatility, clear communicative style, comedic tendencies, and strong musicianship. Originally from Houston, TX, Meredith was born into a musical family performing with her six siblings in churches and professional choirs from a very young age. After graduating, Meredith immediately dove into the East Coast theater scene starring in productions of Hairspray and Gypsy. After visiting her sister, actress Missi Pyle, Meredith felt a calling to the opposite coast and quickly transitioned into the LA acting scene through the help and guidance of her big sister. After ten years, Meredith now calls LA home. She currently works as a full-time singer and voice teacher as well as an on-camera actress. As a singer, she works primarily as a session singer for Film & TV projects such as Frozen 2, Mulan, Minions 2, “The Morning Show”, and “Disenchantment,” just to name a few. For full list of credits, check out her IMDb page here. Meredith is also a professional choral singer. She is on the roster of the award winning ensemble Tonality, using the art of choral music to promote social justice. She also sings regularly with the LA Phil, LA Master Chorale, Los Robles Master Chorale, and many churches and synagogues around Los Angeles. As a teacher, Meredith currently serves as adjunct voice faculty at Pepperdine University in Malibu, CA. In addition to her work at Pepperdine, she works extensively with the Harvard-Westlake school choral program. She is an active member of the National Association for Teachers of Singing and has a thriving private voice studio. She has been married to Ben Pedley since May 28, 2017.
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.
