Kelli Giddish was born on April 13, 1980, raised in Cumming, Georgia and graduated from the University of Evansville in Indiana where she majored in performance arts. While in college she performed in a lot of productions and was selected as an Irene Ryan Finalist, giving her an opportunity to perform at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. She once studied in England, but she came back to the States to join the cast of Suzanne Bradbeer's Full Bloom in New York City. Giddish is also into creating short films and is dedicated to developing new projects with undiscovered playwrights.

Di Henry is played by Kelli Giddish on the soap opera All My Children. Di first appears as the woman who defended Krystal while in jail, when other inmates were harassing her. She was secretive about her past, though she did know a lot about Tad Martin. After prison she used the alias Diana Cole and worked as a nanny for Babe Carey's infant son Adam. Tad then became suspicious about her identity and after a few investigations, it was proven that she was really Dixie. She admitted this and added that she wanted to start a new life, thus changing her identity. The whole truth, however, was that Di was really Dixie's long-lost half-sister and that Dixie was still alive, contrary to what everyone believed.
