Sophie Spencer Pyle (born July 2, 1987) is one of the principal characters in an upcoming network television docu-series that follows the social and professional day-to-day lives of several members of Washington, D.C.’s under-30 set.
Background
Sophie Pyle was born at Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington DC to Susan Dickenson, a writer/editor for Home Accents Today, and Nicholas Pyle, a Washington DC lobbyist. She is the eldest of three daughters, Jane Pyle (b. 1990) and Olivia Pyle (b. 1993), and has a stepsister named Amalia Dickenson (b. 1986).

Currently, Pyle is in her senior year as a journalism major at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Pyle spent several summer breaks working at Pyle & Associates, a lobbying firm founded by her grandfather, Robert Pyle, in the late seventies. In the spring of 2008, she completed a three-month internship at the National Press Club in Washington. At Pyle & Associates she wrote newsletters and press releases, assisted with association meetings and occasionally mingled with Capitol Hill frequenters such as Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy, and John Kerry. She also spent the summer of 2005 interning for former congressman Charles Bass.
