  • ABOUT LAURA VALE

    Laura Vale began her journey in acting as a young girl, when she started working in regional theaters in her home state of New York. She continued honing her craft in the backdrop of New York City while pursuing her education at NYU. Laura made her mark in the independent horror film scene in the city before venturing to Los Angeles. In her first two Hollywood film experiences, she had the privilege of working in films directed by the legendary Clint Eastwood (“Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" and "Absolute Power”). This experience set the standard for her vision of an ideal film set. Her versatility then extended to television, where she co-starred in both comedy and drama series such as "Two and a Half Men," "Desperate Housewives," "Seventh Heaven," and "Charmed."

    After years of dedicated study, practice in her craft, and several hundred auditions, Laura wanted to take a more active approach to her career, leading her to establish the Good Rebel Pictures production company. With a passion for storytelling, a curiosity about the human condition, and a wealth of experience, Laura continues to shape her career with a commitment to artistic excellence. She wants to portray characters that are thoughtful, entertaining, and evoke a sense of realism.
