Childhood & Early Life

Jamie Clayton was born on January 15, 1978, and was raised in San Diego, California. Her father, Howard Clayton, worked as a defence attorney, and her mother, Shelley Clayton, was an event planner.

She grew up with her sister, Toni. Jamie later moved to New York. She had always dreamed of being a makeup artist, but had never thought of being an actor.

Career

Jamie started her career as a makeup artist. At the same time, she also hosted the ‘Vh1’ show ‘TRANSform Me.’ The American reality show premiered on March 15, 2010. It revolved around the makeover of girls by three trans-women stylists.

The following year, she was cast in the HBO series ‘Hung.’ Jamie was offered the role of ‘Kyla,’ which was a recurring role. It was a comedy–drama series that aired on ‘HBO’ from June 28, 2009, to December 4, 2011. She appeared in the third season of the series.

In 2012, Jamie appeared in the comedy web series ‘Dirty Work.’ The series was produced by ‘Fourth Wall Studios’ and featured her in the lead role of ‘Michelle.’

Following the success of her previous series, Jamie was cast as ‘Carla Favers’ in the American sitcom ‘Are We There Yet?’ She appeared in the episode titled ‘The Wrong Way Episode.’ The series was based on the 2005 feature film of the same name.

In 2013, Clayton appeared as ‘Nadya’ in an episode of the series ‘Hustling,’ named ‘Sugar.’ The series portrayed the life of a man who worked in the porn industry and enjoyed a lavish lifestyle and what followed when he grew old.

In 2014, she was offered the role of ‘Niamh’ in the series ‘Scissr.’ The web series was about lesbian relationships.

In 2015, she bagged the role of ‘Nomi Marks’ in the American science-fiction web series ‘Sense8.’ The series aired from 2015 to 2018 and was divided into two seasons, encompassing 24 episodes. The show garnered positive reviews from critics and audiences and also won the ‘GLAAD Media Award’ for ‘Outstanding Drama Series.’

Finally, in 2016, Jamie made her big-screen debut with the psychological thriller ‘The Neon Demon.’ She played the role of a casting director in the film. The movie was about a teenager on her journey to become a supermodel.

In late 2016, she was cast in the Canadian police-procedural TV drama ‘Motive.’ The series garnered around 1.23 million viewers on the day it premiered. Clayton played the role of ‘Avery Bowman’ in an episode titled ‘The Dead Name.’ The concept of the series was quite similar to that of ‘Columbo,’ where the killer and the victim were revealed at the very beginning of the episode and the rest of the plot revolved around chasing the culprit.

In 2017, Jamie appeared as ‘Edda’ in the British psychological crime thriller ‘The Snowman.’ The film was based on the novel of the same name by Jo Nesbo. The plot of the film narrated the tale of a man and his illegitimate son.

The same year, Jamie played the role of ‘Dr. Ryan’ in the drama–thriller movie ‘The Chain.’ The film was about a man who was required to kill a person to join an assisted-suicide company.
