After moving to New York she worked in coffee shops, and began meeting a lot of people in the entertainment industry. Her first project came at the age of 21, when she was cast in a production of “Spring Awakening”. The following year, she became part of “August: Osage County”, and then Showtime’s “The Big C”. Afterwards, Emily made a guest appearance in “Law & Order: Criminal Intent” in which she played Jeannie Richmonds. This then led to her first film in “Aunt Tigress”. These small parts still established her net worth.
After being a part of numerous films and shows, she was eventually cast as Beth Greene for the AMC series “The Walking Dead”. She portrayed a 16 year old character despite being 25 during her first appearance in season two. She then became a regular part of the series after two years and would work with her on-screen sister Lauren Cohan for the song “The Parting Glass”. Her run with the show ended in 2014, although she made a guest appearance in 2015. After “The Walking Dead”, she then returned to “Law & Order”: Special Victims Unit” as Haley Cole. After making an appearance in Hallmark’s “Love On The Sidelines”, she became part of the main cast of “Conviction” which started airing in March 2016. All added to her net worth.
In 2013, she released her first EP called “Expired Love”, and added two more singles the following year. She then released a single called “Rockstar” and would then make appearances in several television shows. These include “Forever”, “The Flash”, “Masters of Sex”, and “The Knick”. She also released an album in 2015 called “This is War”. These lifted her net worth too.
For her personal life, it is known that Emily was linked to “The Walking Dead” co-star Norman Reedus but both of them denied having a relationship. Aside from that, Kinney is a vegetarian, and still watches “The Walking Dead” to see her old cast mates.

Sometimes when you're starting out with acting, you have to take what you can get to get experience and meet people.

When I was little, we moved around a lot, actually. In second grade, I think I went to three different schools. We were in Nevada and Oregon and as well as a few different places in Nebraska. I did go to high school in the same town.

I would rather do a project that I've invested so much time to, rather than try to get a part on another show.

Acting is so much about waiting... waiting for an audition, waiting for the right part to come along. It's nice to write your own thing, write about what you're feeling and then go out and perform them. It's a nice thing to have and not get bored.

It's definitely one of those things when you decide to be an actor that it would be really cool to be in a Broadway show or a series regular on a hit show.
