Cindy Busby has been a prominent presence in Hollywood for over two decades, making her mark in both film and television. She is best known for her series regular role as 'Ashley Stanton' on Heartland, one of the most successful Canadian television shows ever produced. Syndicated in over 81 countries and a fan favorite on Netflix, the series has solidified her as a beloved actress among audiences worldwide. Next, Cindy will make her debut as Nora Anderson on the highly anticipated series When Hope Calls Season 2, premiering on Great American Pureflix on April 3, 2025, and on Great American Family on April 6, 2025. Over the years, Cindy's dedication and talent have earned her over twenty lead roles, including her standout performance in Unleashing Mr. Darcy (2016), which premiered to over three million viewers and broke the network's social media record. She also starred in Royal Hearts, filmed in Romania alongside James Brolin.

Busby has worked with some of Hollywood's biggest names, making her a natural fit in high-profile projects. Her impressive resume includes The Big Year with Steve Martin, A Life Interrupted with Lea Thompson, Honey Girls with Ashanti, Picture This with Ashley Tisdale, and The Wrong Stepdaughter with Sydney Sweeney.

Beyond film, Cindy's television roles have solidified her as a household name. She had recurring roles on Hallmark's first-ever series, Cedar Cove, alongside Andie MacDowell, and ABC's Somewhere Between. A special opportunity came when she showcased her comedic talents as a series regular in Date My Dad, starring Barry Watson and Raquel Welch. She has also made memorable guest appearances on fan-favorite shows such as Supernatural, Psych, The L.A. Complex, and The Vampire Diaries.

 Busby currently lives in Los Angeles with her husband and her rescue dog, Suzie.
