Peyton List (born August 8, 1986) is an American actress.

Peyton List was born on August 08, 1986 in Baltimore Maryland, USA. She grew up with her older sister Brittany, who works as a model in Germany, and her parents Sherri and Douglas. She went to the Roland Park Country School in Baltimore. At the age of eight she went to a childrens advertising agency in Washington to look for employment in toy advertisements and related fields and eventually made an appearance in a advertisement for Kraft Macaroni & Cheese.

As the sisters grew up, Brittany's height sent her into modelling in New York, with her sister joining her at the age of 12. Peyton was then signed by both modelling and acting agencies (T.H.E Artist Agency, Ford Models). Soon, List was leaving school three or four times a week for modelling assignments, as she was acknowledged to be a perfect children's size 10. She was soon working on the catwalk, as well as finding work in catalogues and in children's advertising campaigns.
