Toledo native Alyson Stoner receives Emmy attention

7/21/2009

When the Emmy Awards are announced in September, one Toledo native will have a reason to pay special attention.

Alyson Stoner provides the voice of the character Isabella in the Disney Channel s Phineas and Ferb, which last week received a nomination for Outstanding Special Class Short-format Animated Programs. The comedy chronicles the adventures of two stepbrothers on summer vacation. It will be up against Nickelodeon s SpongeBob SquarePants.

Stoner, an actress and dancer, has appeared in the music videos of Eminem and Missy Elliot, acted in the movies Cheaper by the Dozen and its sequel, and appeared in the Disney Channel movie Camp Rock starring the Jonas Brothers.
