A native of Reno, NV, television and film performer Chase Ellison enjoyed the bulk of his early work as a small screen-oriented child star, with a recurring role as Noah Newman on the #92;soap opera The Young and the Restless and guest roles on programs including Malcolm in the Middle, 7th Heaven, and Deadwood. Feature credits included the #92;inspirational #92;religious drama End of the Spear (2005), Alan Ball's visceral racially themed #92;drama Towelhead (2007), and the Dennis Lee-directed, Julia Roberts-headlined family-oriented #92;drama Fireflies in the Garden (2008). ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
