L' Marie was born and raised in a quiet north side suburb of Chicago, IL. Growing up, her passion was to perform, and as long as she can remember, she was always putting on shows for family and friends. Performing has always come natural for her; singing and dancing...second nature, if you will. Her most challenging interest - as well as her dream come true - would be the opportunity to land on the big screen as a well known talent or actor. Her career as a model has been fun, as well as quite successful. She loves being in front of the camera and finds different methods in her freedom of movement and rhythms. She finds it to be a great way to express her high spirits and sensuality.

Graduating from Glenbrook South High School, she jumped right into modeling and dance classes. She became a cosmotologist while also working as a full time model. She would always look forward to attending her dance classes and would never miss a class for the world. After a year of dance training, she audition for a nationwide musical tour and was granted the opportunity as a principle dancer. This gave her the chance to understudy two lead characters. She toured for two years. After coming off tour, she moved to Los Angeles to continue working on several T.V. sitcoms and landed various parts in box office movies. She is very proud to say that she is an active member of Screen Actors Guild and has been since 1996. 

Her vibrant personality and her will to succeed is what keeps her going with a positive outlook towards her future. Her passion to help others is what keeps her blessed with the drive and desire to follow her dreams.
