Kiernan Shipka

Kiernan Shipka interests me as a rare child actor who actually grew into the work. After making her name as Sally Draper on Mad Men, she could have faded the way so many young performers do, but instead she leapt to leading roles with Sabrina and kept widening her range through voice work and modeling. That early Lucy Award now reads like a fair early signal. Despite her small frame she holds the frame with an odd magnetic pull. Because she advanced one deliberate step at a time, I suspect her richest, most surprising performances are still ahead in adult roles.
