Biography

Johnna Leary is an actress and singer working extensively in television, film and theater. She frequently appears on historical mini series or criminal recreation dramas, while playing roles ranging from a nerdy high school student on "Evil Kin" (ID Channel) to a Civil War saloon girl on "The American West" (AMC) or a Revolutionary War housewife on "Legends and Lies: The Patriots" (FOX). Johnna also appears as the Viking Opera Queen on the JG Wentworth Opera reboot national commercial campaign, a dream come true for a real life opera and musical theater singer.

Growing up as the daughter of two teachers who were not involved with show business, Johnna remains very down to earth and adorably awkward, normally popping up as a quirky best friend or comedic girl next door. As a dorky history lover, she always enjoys time-traveling on historical series that feature some comedy, such as "The Good Lord Bird" (Showtime). Johnna is also a musical theatre actress and singer and has appeared in live stage shows at The Kennedy Center, Totem Pole Playhouse and Pittsburgh Musical Theater. She sang soprano backup vocals on East Coast tour stops for both Josh Groban and Sarah Brightman. Johnna is a member of Actor's Equity Association.
