Jovanna Vidal(I)

Jovanna Vidal is a film/television actress, host, producer, voiceover artist and entrepreneur in Los Angeles. Jovanna is known equally for her strong, defiant character portrayals as for the fragile underdog featuring character-defining moments. Recently, we've seen her go from a conflicted ICE Agent to a grief-stricken therapist seeking to help a suicidal teen. Each performance embodying what it means to come to terms with the potential for an unfortunate and debilitating outcome. Jovanna has also been fortunate to tap into the more technical world of creating in The Jester's Tale, an AR film directed by the brilliant Asad J. Malik and which garnered great traction at Sundance this year.

Jovanna is a storyteller whose intention and commitment is to depict characters that help the viewer heal and grow. Reflecting back the inspiration and change she wants to see in the World is what fuels her to venture into the uncomfortable places.

Jovanna studied with John Sudol at The Center for the Language of the Face becoming certified in reading micro-expressions at an expert level. She is credited as Contributing Editor to Mr. Sudol's "Acting: Face to Face" books. Jovanna has now found a home under the great teachings of Craig Wallace who has been integral in bridging her twice daily meditation practice of 6 years to the World of creating. Although born and raised in New York, she still considers herself a Jersey girl at heart because that was where her formidable school years came to be. She feels blessed to have lived in a number of other cities including London, Miami, Santo Domingo, New Orleans and Skamakawa to name a few. She considers herself fortunate to have had all these adventure seeking and community building experiences that have been instrumental in making the Jovanna we know today.

Jovanna is thrilled to be calling Los Angeles home for 10 years now.
