Timeline
Julia May Whelan (born May 8, 1984) is an American actress and author.
Julia May Whelan was born in Oregon on May 8, 1984.
Her father was a firefighter and her mother a teacher.
Whelan first acted in community theater at the age of five, and yearly trips to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland, Oregon deepened her interest in an acting career.
At age ten she began acting lessons with actor/screenwriter Geof Prysirr.
They developed a close relationship, and eventually Prysirr became her guardian, escorting her on trips to Los Angeles, where she soon found professional success.
Whelan moved to Los Angeles with Prysirr and his wife, Days of Our Lives actress Derya Ruggles, so that Whelan could advance her career.
Her first TV role was in an April 8, 1996, episode of the drama series Nowhere Man.
Whelan was first introduced to a broader audience in the 1998 TV movie Fifteen and Pregnant as the younger sister of Kirsten Dunst, who portrayed the movie's pregnant protagonist.
She is best known for her role as Grace Manning on the television family drama series Once and Again (1999–2002), and her co-starring role in the 2002 Lifetime movie The Secret Life of Zoey.
In 1999 Whelan landed the role for which she is still best known, playing insecure teenager Grace Manning on the family drama Once and Again.
The cast included Sela Ward and Billy Campbell as single parents trying to nurture a romance and eventually build a blended family together.
Once and Again was noted for the high quality of its actors, particularly the younger cast members, who were praised for their sensitive performances; they were given screen time commensurate with that of the adult leads.
This lesbian storyline was dovetailed with an equally controversial plot involving Whelan's character in a doomed romance with her high school drama teacher "Mr. Dmitri", played by Eric Stoltz.
Whelan, Deane, and Wood were recognized for their performances in April 2001, winning that year's Young Artist Award (from Young Artist Association) for Best Ensemble in a TV Series (Drama or Comedy); Whelan was nominated individually in March 2000 for Best Performance in a TV Drama Series - Supporting Young Actress.
After Once and Again wrapped up its three-year run, Whelan co-starred in the 2002 Lifetime Television movie, The Secret Life of Zoey, as a model student struggling with a prescription drug addiction.
The movie was promoted alongside Lifetime TV rebroadcasts of Once and Again.
A noted child actor, Whelan first appeared on screen at the age of 11 and continued to take television roles until her matriculation into Middlebury College in 2004; Whelan graduated magna cum laude from Middlebury in 2008 after spending the 2006–2007 academic year as a visiting student at Lincoln College, Oxford.
Whelan continued to take television roles through 2004, when she enrolled in Middlebury College.
Whelan spent the 2006–2007 academic year as a visiting student at Lincoln College, Oxford.
Whelan returned to film acting in November 2008 with a role in the fantasy thriller Fading of the Cries.
Whelan has won acclaim for her narration of many audiobooks, including Gillian Flynn's 2012 thriller Gone Girl (co-read with Kirby Heyborne), Tara Westover's Educated, for which she won Best Female Narrator at the 2019 Audie Awards, and Nora Roberts' The Witness, for which she won Best Romance at the 2013 awards.
Whelan also narrated the award-winning novel My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh, the New York Times bestseller Evvie Drake Starts Over by Linda Holmes, and her own novel, My Oxford Year.
Whelan also narrates long-form nonfiction journalism, including articles from The New Yorker, The Atlantic, ProPublica, and Vanity Fair.
In 2018, Whelan published a novel, My Oxford Year, which Entertainment Weekly called "a breathtakingly perfect picture of Oxford" and "a powerfully heartbreaking and life-affirming tribute to love and to choice".
In 2022, she released her sophomore novel, Thank You for Listening.
AudioFile has named Whelan a Golden Voice narrator.
