Emily Dickinson was born on April 13, 1990, in Richmond Hill, Ontario. She started her career on-stage as a dancer, but when her family moved to a small town with no dance studio, she started getting involved in community theatre. At North Frontenac Little Theatre she fell in love with acting, and did classics from "Oliver!" to "The Wizard of Oz."
At 18 she went to Carleton University in Ottawa, Ontario for journalism. She took a semester abroad at The Danish School of Media and Journalism (Journalisthøjskole) in Aarhus, Denmark. She is the winner of the 2012 "Canada-EU Young Journalist Award" for a piece she wrote about bee deaths in North America and Europe. She moved to Melbourne, Australia in 2013, and finally returned to her native Toronto to seriously pursue acting in 2014.
In addition to acting, Emily writes essay-style pieces and op-eds about life as a woman, is the co-founder of a online feminist publication, and is the founder of @grlpwrart.
Emily lives in Toronto, Ontario.
