“No one’s path is going to be your path, my path, his path, so find your own and just stick with it.” – Kearran Giovanni
Kearran Giovanni originally planned on becoming a doctor. But, after falling in love with acting her path changed and she found herself on Broadway. She starred in numerous productions like Sweet Charity (opposite Christina Applegate), On Broadway (with Hugh Jackman), Tarzan, Catch Me If You Can, and Anything Goes. She then made her way to television and has gotten to play a variety of roles ranging from a detective to a supervillain. Her credits include Major Crimes, The Rookie, Black Lightning, Designated Survivor and many more. She currently can be seen in the CW hit series Walker.
As a kid, she grew up dancing and competing in gymnastics. Now, she brings that athleticism and competitive nature to her roles, performing her own stunts whenever she can. In this episode, she discusses her various roles, how she uses the lessons she learned from sports in her profession, gives advice to aspiring actors, and talks about her passion for cooking and travel.
