Nicole Rayburn stands out as one of the most talented and beautiful
young actresses in cinema today. Rayburn was born in San Francisco to a
military family stationed at Travis Air Force Base. She did not stay
there long; as, the Rayburn's were always packing up their car with the
dogs, cats, birds, and all their belongings, and, moving from city to
city. Mostly, they lived and traveled in the south. When Rayburn was in
5th grade, somewhere in Georgia, she had to choose between studying
bells or violin in an orchestra class. Rayburn chose the violin. This
was the beginning of Rayburn's artistic endeavors. Impressed by her
flair for music and anything having to do with performing, Rayburn's
parents and teachers encouraged more study of the arts. She began
dancing, drawing and acting in school plays. Before long, Rayburn
joined the cheerleading squad at one of her schools, somewhere in one
of the Carolinas. Finally, when she was a teenager, the Rayburn's
settled in Titusville, Florida. Nic (short for Nicole) continued to
pursue her passion for dancing and cheerleading. Rayburn worked at a
motorcycle shop after school and began riding motorbikes at a very
young age. It was on a trip to Miami Beach, at the age of eighteen,
when Rayburn was spotted on the street by a casting director.
Immediately Rayburn was cast in numerous music videos, one after
another, Ricky Martin, Pink, Gloria Estefan and NSYNC, to name a few.
She began to dream of a career in movies and of Hollywood. Packing her
bags and heading for a new city was nothing new to Rayburn. It just so
happened that her Uncle John needed some help on his bird breeding farm
in Buellton, California. Nic began her journey to Hollywood, via
Buellton, home of the famous Anderson's Pea Soup. It was here that
Rayburn learned how to breed birds, large and small, including Macaws
and Finches. As fate has it, within a year of Rayburn's arrival, Uncle
John sold the farm, birds and all. So, Nic boarded a train and headed
for Hollywood. She quickly landed a waitress job and stayed at a Motel
6 in Hollywood, California. As soon as she saved up enough money,
Rayburn began intensive acting classes. Before long her talent and
sensual beauty led to numerous starring roles in independent films,
including, Kisses and Caroms, Boo!, Candy Stripers and Blur. Today, she
resides and is settled in Los Angeles where she just purchased her
first house.
