Devon Joseph Werkheiser (born March 8, 1991) is an American actor perhaps best     
known for his starring role as Ned Bigby on the Nickelodeon children's sitcom       
series Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide and for his role in the 2007 TV     
Movie Shredderman Rules as the lead character Nolan Byrd.                           
                                                                                   
Werkheiser was born in Atlanta, Georgia. His father is a real estate executive     
and his mother is a homemaker. He started acting when his parents then             
enrolled him in the Talent Factory, a local children's acting program. At age 16,   
six years after his professional acting career started, he and his family moved     
to Los Angeles to avoid having to split time between Atlanta and Hollywood. He     
has also showed his charitable works at an early age, by supporting the             
Starlight Children's Foundation.                                                   
                                                                                   
Werkheiser has signed to Universal Records, and is expected to release his         
debut album in 2008. The album's genre will be a combination of pop and rock.       
Trilogy Productions' Eddie Galan, Andrew Lane, and Jay Condiotti have               
announced that they have worked with Werkheiser for at least one song for his       
debut album via Eddie Galan's official MySpace page. A demo song by                 
Werkheiser, Superhero, was released on the Shredderman Rules DVD. A few other       
songs of his can be found onYouTube such as "Standing Tall" and "First Time".
