Lara Seidel began her career in the entertainment business 26 years ago when she became a PA for Joe Camp, creator, writer, and director of the 70’s canine film superstar, Benji.
She has been cast in over 40 commercials, one of which, Visa Checkout (narrated by Morgan Freeman), is currently airing nationally and internationally.
Seidel also played the lead in the Donald Marguiles play, Collected Stories. She has played a variety of roles from a vampire in the upcoming Night Shift 2, to a mom in an extraterrestrial invasion film, The Changers. Her current movie, Wildflowers, is available on Amazon.
She has a degree in film communications from the University of Alabama and has trained with many of the finest acting coaches in LA and Florida.
In 2010 at the age of 40, Lara endured a divorce. Many people consider 40 middle-aged and halfway through your life, so adding a divorce in the mix was challenging. But you realize that every life experience yields many different results, some good, some bad. But all are learning opportunities. You grow as a person and rediscover your individuality. And for Lara, it helped add new dimensions to her acting skills, independence, martial arts training, and her happiness level.
Six months ago, Lara decided to sell her fundraising business of 20 years and begin a new chapter of her life. Moving south of Atlanta three months ago, Lara still continues to pursue her acting career and martial arts. She is a 3rd-degree black belt in Kung Fu. http://247cast.com/laraseidel
