Following her brief appearances on Outer Banks, Lilah’s first big role was in Amazon’s The Summer I Turned Pretty where, according to Jonas Pate via Port City Daily, series creator Jenny Han “didn’t know” Lilah was his daughter and got the job “100% on her own:”

“And she didn’t know that Lilah was the daughter of ‘Outer Banks’ creator. Lilah got it straight-up, 100% on her own.”

Despite having a number of impressive credits to her name, Lilah shows no signs of slowing down.

Her next role is in the upcoming indie horror flick Stay at Home (via The Hollywood Reporter) which follows two sisters during a nationwide lockdown who utilize a monitoring app called Stay at Home.
