Cara Jade Myers

Cara Jade Myers, an American actress and writer, broke through with her performance as Anna Brown in Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon (2023). Born in Phoenix, Arizona, and raised in Prescott Valley, she became drawn to theater and acting in college after an initial interest in Egyptology and astronomy. She moved to Los Angeles in 2011, the year she reached the semifinals of a writing program run by ABC and Disney, and took various behind-the-scenes film jobs while also appearing in television roles. Myers has continued to write, and in early 2020 she was chosen for the A3 Artist Agency's The Colony program. She was also selected for the Native American Feature Film Writers Lab as a fellow that year and has taught writing and filmmaking to young people on reservations through the Native American Media Alliance. Variety named her one of its 10 Actors to Watch for 2023.
