Biography of Alana de la Garza
Early Life and EducationAlana de la Garza, an American fashion model and actress, was born on June 18, 1976, in Columbus, Ohio, to a Mexican father and an Irish mother. She was renowned for her beauty even in school, and it is no surprise that before completing her secondary education, she won her first title and crown as "Miss Photogenic." Her family later moved to Texas, and after graduating from high school, Alana found employment in a special education center for developmentally disabled children. This experience greatly impacted her, and she subsequently enrolled at the University of Texas to study Physical Therapy and Social Adaptation. However, acting had always been her passion since childhood, and she considered her studies as more of a hobby.
Acting Career
Alana's first film role dates back to 1999 when she appeared in an episode of the television series "Mortal Kombat: Conquest." However, the role did not bring her fame, fortune, or satisfaction, so Alana moved to New York in search of better opportunities to showcase her acting abilities. She was invited to join the soap opera "All My Children," and her role was so memorable that Alana continued to appear in the show for several months. This marked a great start to her acting career. She then landed a role in the popular television series "Charmed."
In 2002, Alana received her first role in a feature film, "Carnival Knowledge." However, it was a minor role as a stunning beauty in a bar who exchanged a few lines with the film's main character. Alana continued to appear in "Charmed" until she received an offer to join the well-known television series "Law & Order" in 2006. She appeared in the seventeenth season of "Law & Order" and within a year, she received several prestigious television awards, including the ALMA Award for "Best Female Dramatic Role on TV."
Later Career and Personal Life
In 2008, Alana de la Garza became the new face of the cosmetic company "Garnier." On May 31 of the same year, she married the relatively unknown American novelist, Michael Roberts, in Orlando. Alana also had to address her fans with a statement that she did not have any social media accounts after being informed that someone was pretending to be her on platforms like MySpace and Facebook.
