22 year old American actress Cassidy Gifford, daughter of talk show host Kathie Lee Gifford and the late American football player Frank Gifford, is finding her feet in Hollywood after starring in this summer's horror flick The Gallows as Cassidy Spilker.

With minor appearances in TV shows such as Blue Bloods, The Suit Life on Deck and That's So Raven to her name, Gifford will also be seen in next year's sci-fi adventure Synkhole, directed by Mark Dennis and Ben Foster. With support and guidance from her mother Kathie - who is the godmother of Kendall and Kylie Jenner - this youngster is guaranteed to pick up more roles as she pursues a career in what she describes as a 'lifelong passion'.
