Sydney Harris is sophisticated, tenacious and sprinkled with plenty of 'blonde moments'.
Her passion for performing started in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, creating home movies with her family. Her appreciation of all the arts, led her to discover classical ballet. After years of intense training, Sydney turned down an invitation to join the Aspen Santa Fe Ballet to move to New York. She began studying dance on a merit scholarship at NYU-TISCH, but left the program to focus on professional ballet. Not long after, she broke her back, forcing her to take time off. Always looking for the silver lining, Sydney viewed this setback as way for her to refocus on craft, thus enrolling in the famed Stella Adler School of Acting.
Following the tragedy of September 11th, Sydney made the choice to move back to Louisiana. Now fully healed, she enrolled and earned a BFA in Dance from Tulane University. Her Southern roots run deep, postponing her dance career to help in the rebuilding after hurricane Katrina. Afterward, always looking to broaden her life experiences, Sydney, with "Alfie", her affectionate Italian Greyhound by her side, made the big move to Paris, France, to dance internationally.
Two years later, after successfully achieving her career and personal goals in Paris, it was clear the acting world was calling Sydney back to New York once again. She quickly found numerous opportunities to work, emerging as a standout in the indie film scene both in regard to acting and now producing.
It is no surprise Sydney is well trained in sketch, improv and stand up considering her skills were honed at two prominent NY & LA schools: Upright Citizens Brigade and Groundlings. It was Sydney's wide range of dramatic talent that caught the eye of renowned acting coach Margie Haber, who offered her a full scholarship to study in Los Angeles. Sydney recently made the decision to hop coasts and hasn't looked back.
