Laura Harring’s first acting role was at the age of 5 years old, when she appeared in The Nativity Story as an angel. Her body of work extends 30 years and has remarkable roles that prove that Laura Harring is a chameleon and a shape shifter, that can play almost any character. Laura has starred opposite Forest Whitaker as an attorney, William Hurt, also Denzel Washington, Javier Bardem, John Travolta, Emma Roberts and Naomi Watts in Mulholland Drive. Laura has taken to the stage and television but is mostly known for her movies roles. On the small screen Laura played a mysterious woman in Gossip Girl, opposite Ed Westwick, a lawyer in The Shield, the other woman in Chasing Life, as well as strong matriarchal characters in the Law and Order series, and various sit comedies such as Frasier, Blossom etc. However, Laura Harring is perhaps best known for starring in the critically acclaimed David Lynch movie, Mulholland Drive. A film that was voted Best Movie of the 21st Century in two different polls.

Classically trained, well read and traveled, Laura Harring surprises with her down to earth nature and magical quality she exudes. Her movements graceful. An avid dancer of tango, salsa, merengue, and some ballroom such as swing, lindy hop and the waltz, you would never imagine she has read Tao Teh Ching, The I Ching, The Art of War, Kabbalah, The Kybalion (Hermetic Philosophy) Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, Dostoevsky and can quote Tolstoy.

Harring received her diploma from Aiglon College in Switzerland, a private elite boarding school, where she met the brother of her future husband, Count Carl-Eduard von Bismarck.
Although they remain friends to this day, the couple divorced two years later, and Laura focused on her career. Laura has met the three other wives of her ex-husband. An extremely private person, Laura refuses to talk about her personal life, keeping an air of mystery about her that fans love and, she says keeps her under the radar, which she believes to be freedom. She is loved by her fans because of her positive messages and fun loving way with people, though at times she says she can be unusually shy, a trait she got from her father. Her social media posts are mostly sharing the wisdom she learned from her travels throughout Asia, and her secrets for youth and happiness. She believes that moving the body is crucial for happiness and keeping a positive attitude by focusing on the things we love about life. Laura believes that being grateful is the secret to all life, that nature heals more than medicine, and that happy people are nice people.
