Danielle Larracuente is an emerging actress originally from Cortlandt Manor, New York. She is the daughter of retired NYPD officers Carmen D. Sabater and Israel Larracuente Jr., both of Puerto Rican descent. Growing up with three brothers, Danielle found early inspiration in Latina icons like Jennifer Lopez and Rosie Perez, who helped shape her passion for performance.
Her career began at an exceptionally young age, landing her first major commercial at just four years old.

At 15, Danielle relocated to Los Angeles with her mother to pursue acting full-time. She went on to guest star in major television series, including ER and Without a Trace. After gaining momentum in the industry, Danielle took a meaningful hiatus to focus on motherhood, earn her cosmetology license, and complete a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology.
Her return to the screen has been marked by powerful performances and a growing presence in television and film. She secured a recurring role on Starz's Vida and appeared in popular series such as NCIS, This Is Us, Good Trouble, Home Economics, and Bosch: Legacy, where she plays Paulina Calderon.
