Biography[]

Grace Phipps returns as progressive biker girl Lela in the Disney Channel Original Movie “Teen Beach 2.” After amazingly transporting herself into the modern world of her friends Mack and Brady, she finds it hard to let go of the freedom and individuality she’s afforded outside the movie world of “Wet Side Story.”

Phipps also starred as Amy, Chloe King’s childhood best friend who is not afraid to voice her opinions, in ABC Family’s “The Nine Lives of Chloe King.” She can also be seen in recurring roles on “The Vampire Diaries” and “Baby Daddy,” as well as recent guest-star appearances in “Hawaii 5.0″ and “CSI: Cyber.” Some of her previous credits on the small screen include guest-starring roles on “Supernatural” and “Austin and Ally.”

On the big screen, Phipps made her feature debut in the DreamWorks remake of “Fright Night” and also appeared in “Dark Summer” and “Some Kind of Hate.” Phipps graduated from North East School of the Arts, a highly regarded school for the arts in San Antonio, Texas, where she starred in several theatre productions, including “Grease” (she played the role of “Rizzo”), “A Little Night Music,” “Athena” and Mary Zimmerman’s “The Odyssey.” Born in Austin, Texas, Grace Victoria Phipps is named after two songs – “Grace” by Country Joe & The Fish and “Victoria” by The Kinks. She grew up watching Frankie and Annette movies. In her spare time, she enjoys knitting, reading, playing guitar and writing songs. Phipps is also the proud owner of a golden doodle named Hildy, who happens to be hypoallergenic.
