Shelby Leverington was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. After graduating from Southeast Missouri State University, she moved to New York City in 1968 to study acting. Shortly thereafter, she found Milton Katselas' scene study class and credits his insight and teaching skills as the major factor in her decision to become a professional actor.
