Larry Biela is a Chicago-born actor, writer, and producer whose work is deeply rooted in real-world experience. Raised in Chicago, Biela developed a passion for storytelling and performance early in life, establishing himself as a lifelong creative artist.
After graduating from college, Biela pursued an unconventional parallel path-building a career as a private detective in the city he calls home. Over the course of decades, he worked extensively on wrongful conviction cases, homicide investigations, civil matters, and complex investigative assignments. His career placed him on the front lines of Chicago’s most challenging and often dangerous environments, giving him a rare, firsthand understanding of crime, human behavior, and the justice system.
Alongside his investigative career, Biela dedicated several years to formal actor training, studying method acting, improvisation, and comedy. This foundation sharpened his emotional range, timing, and adaptability, allowing him to move seamlessly between intense dramatic roles and more nuanced or character-driven performances.
Biela later brought this unique background into the film industry, where his investigative expertise became a defining advantage.

His ability to analyze real cases, uncover hidden truths, and translate them into compelling narratives gives his projects a grounded, cinematic realism.
As an actor, Biela’s performances are shaped by lived experience. His training and proficiency in martial arts, stunt work, and weapon handling enhance his on-screen presence, allowing him to portray characters with natural credibility and intensity. Whether in front of the camera or behind it as a producer, he draws directly from his years as a private detective to inform the stories he tells.
Blending artistry with real-world expertise, Larry Biela stands out as a storyteller whose work reflects both creative vision and the hard-earned truths of life on the streets of Chicago.
