    Decatur High Student Stars in Showtime Series

    Decatur Metro | September 29, 2011 | 11:43 am

    Amy writes in and points out that the new Showtime original series “Homeland” features Decatur High School student Morgan Saylor as lead character, Nicholas Brody’s eldest child, Dana Brody.  According to the show’s website, Saylor’s character is “a sullen, abrasive teenager in the midst of a full-blown rebellion. The sudden return of her father leaves her unsure who her greater allegiance is to, her family or her clique of questionable friends.”

    Saylor’s bio on the site provides a synopsis of her filmography to-date…

    In the third grade, Saylor’s family moved within Georgia to an Atlanta neighborhood, full of even more theatre opportunities. There, she met more actors, and directors and an agent. She then made the transition from local and regional stage to television and film. Saylor’s credits include Disney’s “The Greening of Whitney Brown”, “Father of Invention:, “K-Ville”, “Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant.”

      Looks like a cool show. First episode is Oct. 2, I think. And to think that one day soon my five-year old will be able to brag about once having been babysat by Morgan.

      She’s working with an amazing cast! Mandy Patinkin, Clare Danes, WOW! Congratulations to a clearly very talented and hard-working young lady! I may have to get Showtime to check that out (and to watch Dexter!)
