Sarah Levy emerged as a beloved figure in the world of television comedy, best known for her charming portrayal of the sweet and slightly eccentric waitress Twyla Sands on the critically acclaimed Canadian series Schitt's Creek. Born on September 10, 1986, in Toronto, Ontario, she was raised in a family deeply embedded in the entertainment industry, as the daughter of actor and comedian Eugene Levy and writer and producer Deborah Divine. Her brother, Dan Levy, co-created Schitt's Creek with their father, creating a unique family affair on the celebrated show.

Levy's early career included guest appearances on series such as The Latest Buzz and How to Be Indie, as she honed her craft. Her breakthrough arrived when she joined the cast of Schitt's Creek in 2015, a role she played throughout the show's entire six-season run. As Twyla, the kind-hearted and surprisingly wealthy diner waitress in the fictional town of Schitt's Creek, Levy brought a consistent warmth and comedic timing that endeared her to audiences worldwide. The show's popularity exploded in its later seasons, culminating in a historic sweep at the 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards in 2020, where it won all seven major comedy categories. While Levy was not individually nominated, her performance was an integral part of the ensemble's success.

Beyond her iconic role on Schitt's Creek, Levy has appeared in other television projects including SurrealEstate and the holiday film The Christmas Setup. She also performed on stage in Toronto, demonstrating her versatility as a performer. In her personal life, she married actor and musician Graham Outerbridge in October 2021. Sarah Levy continues to build upon her foundation in comedy and acting, carrying forward a family legacy of laughter while establishing her own distinct path within the industry.
