California Native And MythBusters Star

Kari Byron likely had no idea that she would eventually be a television star when she grew up while living in the San Francisco area of California as a child and young woman. Kari Byron’s early life was very similar to everyone else’s in America, a combination of grade school and university followed by a series of entry-level menial jobs that had no relation to the skills that she had learned in San Francisco at University. Her sudden meteoric rise to success as one of the personalities on the popular Discovery Channel program called MythBusters has been a surprise to her and her family as well as the rest of the nation. Going from unknown to a virtual star overnight has been something of a shock to the young and generally well grounded redhead.

Despite being amazingly attractive and stunning to look at, Kari Byron has a very modest and humble outlook on life and on herself. Despite her success with the MythBusters television show, she still conducts all manner of work in the art and sculpting fields, working every day to create some type of artwork and publicly stating that she would go crazy if she was unable to create in this fashion. Preferring to work with all types of polymer clay, wood and general found objects, Kari Byron keeps a gallery of her work available on her personal site for viewing purposes only. She has left the professional craft of sculpting and considers the personal side of the art to be far more rewarding than commercial success.

Raised in California, the statuesque MythBusters bombshell is very familiar with the trappings of success and stardom, despite having kept them at arms length for most of her professional career. This previous experience with stardom and familiarity with Hollywood’s glitzy side came in handy for Kari Byron in dealing with the show business side of the MythBusters program. Making models isn’t all what the show is about after all, and being the center of attention can be a very stressful place to occupy in the show business world. Despite all the fame and pressure to succeed, Kari holds her head high and doesn’t seem to be affected by the vast amount of attention that she receives on a daily basis from the MythBusters audience. This ability to handle the pressure and stress of working and living in the television world is a key skill to succeeding in the show business industry. Despite the brevity of her experience thus far, Kari Byron has already established herself as a seasoned actress and scar let that can handle any part of the MythBusters formula with aplomb.

While this role of what many might consider to be the cheesecake on a television program, a girl added to the cast to blatantly attract male viewers, might seem to be less than dignified for any other casual walk on female actress, Kari Byron got her position through her abilities as a modeler and sculptor. Possessing these skills and her natural intelligence make Kari Byron far more than a simple bimbo that is required to show up and wears skimpy outfits and do little else.
