Audrey McGraw Brings Shelby to Life in Landman
Audrey McGraw appears in the hit Landman as Shelby, a teenage neighbor of Tommy Norris, played by Billy Bob Thornton. Shelby quickly strikes up a friendship with Tommy’s daughter Ainsley, portrayed by Michelle Randolph.
Audrey makes her first appearance in Season 1, Episode 5, “Where Is Home,” where Shelby is introduced chatting with Ainsley poolside. As the season unfolds, the two are seen spending more time together, including attending parties out at the oil patch.
According to IMDb, Audrey has appeared in four episodes of Landman so far, with her most recent appearance coming in Season 2, Episode 5, titled “The Pirate Dinner.”

Alongside Thornton, the cast includes Oscar nominees Demi Moore, Andy Garcia, and Sam Elliott, as well as Ali Larter. Additional cast members include Jacob Lofland, Paulina Chávez, Kayla Wallace, Mark Collie, James Jordan, and Colm Feore.
