Shanna Malcolm

Shanna Malcolm (born September 30, 1986) is a Jamaican-American comedian, actress, and internet personality best known for her YouTube web series HeyYoShanna and her work with Shane Dawson, another YouTube comedian.

Personal Life
Shanna was born and raised in Kingston, Jamaica. She skipped two grade levels and became involved in many extra-curricular activities. Doing so, she discovered her passion for acting. While facing ridicule from teachers she also faced bullying from other students (especially since she was not their age). Shanna grew into adulthood and received a scholarship to attend Wesleyan College and gained a degree in Psychology, Communications and English Literature. While attending this college she fell in love with a man who she soon married. However, things did not work as she planned and they split up. This, in turn, gave her motivation to get a Master of Fine Arts degree at the California Institute of the Arts. After posting a profile on LA Casting she received an offer to appear in the feature-film Smiley directed by Michael Gallagher. Here she became friends with the director Michael Gallagher and Shane Dawson. While frequently appearing in Shane Dawson's YouTube videos, Shanna was urged to make her own YouTube channel which she later did and maintains to this day.
