Casey Knowles
Casey Knowles portrayed the sleeping child in the
Hillary Clinton Red Phone Ad. The footage used was stock footage, not shot for this particular ad, but filmed eight years ago and owned by Getty Images. Knowles, who will be eligible to vote for the first time this year, has said that she was disconcerted when she saw the ad, as she is a staunch
Barack Obama supporter. Knowles remarked, "It would be really wonderful if me (sic) and Barack Obama could get together and make a nice counter ad."
