Larissa Laurel

Multi-Ethnic Actress made her mark in the plus-size modeling world by being one of the top in her field. She was the Apple-Bottom, Dereon. & Coogi model along with many other designer brands. Trained as a musical theater and classically trained actor, Larissa booked her first TV role as real-life Lakota activist "Wauneta Lonewolf" for the pilot "I See God" for MTV. She quotes: "I come from a very long line of Texans. My family can trace their roots back as far as 15 generations of Texans consisting of Irish, Polish, Spanish, Mexican, & Native American blood. I know this helps me morph into different characters and I love exploring different ethnic groups and telling a story that makes one feel closer to understanding a life outside of their own."
