Carlotta Elektra Bosch was born in Barcelona to a Castilian mother and a Catalan father—one a designer, the other an architect and art professor at the University of Girona. She is the youngest of two siblings; her brother is a landscape architect and entrepreneur. Shortly after her birth, the Bosch family moved north, where Carlotta was raised between the medieval city of Girona and the Empordà region. Her father, a cinephile, shared his extensive knowledge of classic cinema with her, nurturing her understanding of art, philosophy, and literature.
From an early age, Carlotta discovered her passion for the arts. At just three years old, she developed a love for American musicals such as Stanley Donen’s "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers," "Funny Face," and "Singin' in the Rain," Vincent Minnelli's "An American in Paris" and "Gigi," and Robert Wise’s "West Side Story." This passion sparked a strong desire to learn dance, and after persuading her mother, she began ballet lessons, which she continued throughout her childhood. At five, she started studying fine arts, finding it a perfect outlet for her imaginative nature. By seven, she was reading voraciously, feeding her fantasy world. This naturally led to a passion for writing, which she further developed through a poetry group in Barcelona’s El Raval neighborhood and later through screenwriting studies at The New School in New York. Her love of the performing arts blossomed early, spending her childhood dressing in costumes and embodying characters from films, plays, and books. During adolescence, she acted in numerous school productions, created sets, and made films with her brother and cousins using 8mm and HD cameras from as young as six years old.
While combining design work and modeling with Spain’s prestigious Francina agency, Carlotta earned a degree in Interior Architecture, specializing in Furniture and Stage Design, in Barcelona. She then completed an MFA in Fine Arts in Stockholm, Sweden, where she lived for nearly two years. Carlotta’s compassion for humanity has inspired her to volunteer since her school days, supporting organizations for the elderly and the physically and mentally disabled, such as Cottolengo. Her curiosity about other cultures and languages has led her to travel extensively and live in Greece, Italy, Portugal, France, and New Zealand. She holds a degree in Art and is fluent in Spanish, Catalan, English, and Italian.
Determined to pursue her dream despite limited English skills, Carlotta moved to New York to study and build a career in acting at the highest level. She initially studied the Lee Strasberg method with Gary Swanson’s theatre group and completed an intensive filmmaking course at NYU. Shortly after arriving in New York, she was discovered by a modeling agency, which helped finance her studies through print and commercial work. Although modeling was initially a means to support herself and pay student loans, Carlotta quickly achieved success, working extensively across Europe, Australasia, and the USA. After saving enough, she auditioned for several top drama schools in New York and was accepted by all. After reading William Esper’s "The Actor’s Art & Craft" and interviewing with him personally, she chose to attend the William Esper Studio, graduating in June 2011. The school counts among its alumni acclaimed actors such as Kathy Bates, Larry David, David Morse, Paul Sorvino, Kristin Davis, Sam Rockwell, and Harold Perrineau. Carlotta has also trained with notable coaches including Per Brahe (Mask and Chekhov techniques), Cynthia Ettinger (Commedia dell'Arte), Bob McAndrew, Juan Carlos Corazza, Patricia Fletcher, Nancy Mayans, Linda & David Laundra, and Deb Jackel.
Recently, Carlotta’s career has brought her back to Europe, where she is now based. Nonetheless, she maintains a residence in Los Angeles due to professional commitments and her affection for the city. She frequently travels between the USA and Europe, performing in numerous productions in both English and Spanish.
