Carla Harmon Kidd is an American actress who grew up in Oklahoma. She fell in love with performing at the age of six when, to the horror of her teachers, she draped herself across the piano during the final program of Vacation Bible School and sang Jesus Loves Me to a full house of appreciative parents. After receiving a Bachelor of Theatre Arts, she worked two seasons performing with the national touring company Repertory Theatre of America. Since shifting her focus to film in 2020, Carla has worked in multiple areas, including film, television, festival shorts, commercial work, and new media. Drawing on a background in character-based storytelling and visual arts, Carla contributes beyond acting by writing and developing the script, location scouting, and designing costumes. She is based in Dallas, SAG-Eligible, and collaborates on narrative-driven projects with a focus on human conflict, redemption arcs, and layered female characters.
