Jenna Boyd's Biography
Like many child actors, Jenna began her career with small roles in
commercials. By the age of 9, Jenna had appeared in television shows such
as Just Shoot Me, CSI and CSI: Miami, and Six Feet Under. For her film
debut, Jenna played a small role in The
Hunted as Loretta, the daughter of the estranged girlfriend of the
main character. This film is where Dale and I first discovered Jenna, and
she is both lovely and adorable, leaving you incapable of stifling your
smiles.

Shortly after, Jenna appeared in the series premiere of the dark and
surreal television series Carnivàle.
(Although her character appears in a later episode, the actress is,
regrettably, not Jenna.) In this role, she plays an endearing young
crippled girl who pushes herself about in a wagon. Fortunately, she has a
happy ending.

Jenna subsequently stars in a film with the mind-numbing and aggrivating
David Spade called Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star.
Jenna is precisely one of two reasons to see this movie, and although the
movie is not particularly good, Jenna is very enjoyable to watch in it.
Her finest, and possibly most recognized role is in Ron Howard's film The Missing, where Jenna stars along
side Evan Rachel Wood (Digging to China,
Thirteen). Jenna's performance in this
film allowed her to push her range and prove to the world that in addition
to being a loveable kid, she can even act.
