Biography

Brenda Vivian was born in Los Angeles, California and is of African, Vietnamese, Irish and Native American descent. Brenda's family moved to San Jose, California when she was a small child and she lived there until high school graduation. Brenda attended UCLA and majored in psychology and communications.

Originally pursuing a career in journalism, she interned at CNN; during which, she was encouraged to pursue a career in acting. After graduating college, she began training at Howard Fine Studio and Stella Adler Los Angeles. Brenda began acting in the theatre, landing roles at The Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum under the direction of Ellen Geer and Heidi Helen Davis. She performed in the open air theatre in classics such as Lysistrata, Medea and The Madwoman of Chaillot. Her love for live performance subsequently led to more acting roles in three original plays by director-playwright Don B. Welch.

From there, Brenda began booking television roles on various television shows including Disney's The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, CBS' Emmy award-winning daytime drama The Bold and the Beautiful and the number-one rated television show in the world, NCIS. Lending her voice as Tia Mowry's cell phone on Nickelodeon's Instant Mom, the multi-faceted actress has also appeared in national television commercial campaigns including TGIFridays and Vitamin Water. Brenda can also be seen in the Sony Screen Gems feature films About Last Night and Think Like A Man Too. Most recently, Brenda filmed a lead role in the sitcom pilot Ward of the State opposite Janet Hubert (Fresh Prince of Bel Air) and Vanessa Williams (Soul Food).

When not working, Brenda is passionate about volunteering for local charities including Meals on Wheels and The National Urban League. Having served on the Executive Committee for the Youth Ambassadors of the American Lung Association, Brenda is committed to supporting and empowering the next generation. In the future, Brenda endeavors to create a youth charity focused on organic gardening, emotional wellness and sustainability.
