Born in Los Angeles to Steven Spielberg and actress Kate Capshaw, Sasha graduated from Brown University where she studied literary arts.

She then started an indie folk rock band named Wardell with her brother Theo Spielberg in 2013. She told WWD that she suffered from stage fright in the beginning but found solace in music during her university years.

She also performs as a solo artist under the moniker Buzzy Lee. Her new album titled “Spoiled Love” was released in 2021.

Apart from music, she is also an aspiring actress and a talented painter who often shares her work on Instagram.

In an interview with WWD, Sasha confessed that she was afraid of her last name as it led to a deep sense of impostor syndrome. “I felt like I’ve had to prove myself forever, and that’s why I can put myself down and why I constantly do.”
