Liliana Hope Ellis better known as Lily was born along with her identical twin sister Evie Ellis in the Washington Heights neighborhood in the borough of Manhattan in New York City. After moving to the nearby New York City suburb of Maplewood, NJ she was discovered by a talent agency while at a nearby mall. Only 9 months old, Lily began going on auditions and made her debut in the promo for the Jim Gaffigan Show and has continued to audition ever since. She did several print ads and then her parents Daniel & Gina Ellis found out about an open call from a friend for the film Tallulah starring Ellen Page and Allison Janney. After several call backs she and her sister landed their big break. Lily loves swimming, playing outside, reading books, coloring, drawing, singing, and her favorite food is mac & cheese from Panera Bread.
