What Only True Fans Know About Hallmark Star Torrey DeVitto

There are plenty of actors who have yet to land their greatest role at the age of 38. For Torrey DeVitto, though, she's already had quite an impressive and multi-faceted career. She managed to accomplish so much already due to her early start; the star began modeling and commercial acting at just 15 years old. In addition to her roles in Hallmark Channel movies and "Chicago Med," DeVitto has racked up quite a few other high-profile acting gigs. Her first major role was Meredith Fell on the CW series "The Vampire Diaries." She also played Melissa on "Pretty Little Liars" and Carrie on "One Tree Hill." She had plenty of guest-starring TV roles in the late '90s and early 2000s, including "Dawson's Creek," "King of Queens," "Scrubs," "Drake & Josh," "CSI: Miami," and "Castle." She also landed a few film roles, including "Starcrossed," "I'll Always Know What You Did Last Summer," and "Green Flash." 

Surprisingly, though, DeVitto was a musician before she got the acting bug. Her father, Liberty DeVitto, was a drummer for Billy Joel for decades, and this left Torrey touring with her parents when she was young. She started playing the violin when she was just six years old. As an adult, she's continued to pursue her love of the instrument, playing on Raphael Saadig's album, "Ray Ray," and Stevie Nicks' album, "In Your Dreams."
