Hazelle Goodman
Biography
Hazelle Goodman, born in Trinidad and Tobago, is an actress who moved to New York as a child and was raised in Queens and Brooklyn. Watching The Sound of Music as a child pushed her toward acting; she studied fashion before earning a drama degree from City College of New York. Over seven years she built her solo show Hazelle!, which HBO adapted as a 1995 special and earned two Cable Ace nominations. Casting her as Cookie, a prostitute, in Deconstructing Harry made her, in 1997, the first black actress given a prominent part in a Woody Allen movie. On television she had a recurring role in Homicide: Life on the Street as Georgia Rae Mahoney, part of a drug-dealing family. Her stage credits include the Queen in Cymbeline and a 2001 Madison Square Garden staging of The Vagina Monologues. She created To the Top, Top, Top! and joined the original company of Spalding Gray: Stories Left to Tell.
