Cassie Steele Bio, Age
Cassie was born Cassandra Rae Steele on December 2, 1989, in Toronto Ontario, Canada, as the daughter of Lily Steele, Robin Steele. Her father Robin is of British descent, while her mother Lily is Filipino. From the first grade on, Steele had started to write her own poems, which she soon turned into songs. She honed her singing skills at the Canadian Academy of Music and the New Conservatory of Music.
As a child, Steele also loved to dance. She took ballet and jazz dance classes at the London School of Dance in Scarborough, Ontario. According to reports, Cassie was a gymnast for a while.
Although she started out with music, i.e. unprofessionally, it was acting that put her in the spotlight. Her first acting appearance ever was in a PBS commercial.
Cassie was 11 years old when she got the role of Manny Santos in Degrassi: The Next Generation. Steele would play the role for the entire duration of the show. She has also starred in many of Degrassi’s television movies, including Degrassi Spring Break Movie (2008), Degrassi Goes Hollywood (2009), and Degrassi Takes Manhattan (2010).

In 2016, she was cast as “Gabriella” in High School Musical but was unable to take on the role due to her busy schedule for filming Degrassi. Her performances at that time without Degrassi included Disney’s “Full Court Miracle” and MTV’s “Super Sweet 16: The Movie”. She also had recurring roles on television shows such as The Best Years (2007) and Instant Star (2008).
A famous movie star, Steele began a music career in 2005 and released her debut album How Much for Happy under the music label Bullseye Canada, Rob’N’Steal Productions. Her second work Destructo Doll was released in 2009 under Independent.
Cassie’s first post-Degrassi role was the role of Abby Vargas in the series The L.A. Complex. However, unlike her first television show, The L.A. Complex was short-lived and only aired for two seasons. She has starred in television movies such as Sorority Surrogate, The Dorm, and Shark Zombie. In 2014, Cassie began playing the recurring role of Tammy Gueterman in Rick and Morty.
Cassie Steele Sister/Family – Alex Steele
Cassie’s sister Alex Steele also appeared in Degrassi. From season 1 to 5 she played the role of Angela Jeramiah. Later in the series, she began playing another character, Tori Santamaria.
