Biography
Mya Taylor is an American actress and singer who was born in Houston, Texas. She got her start in film when director Sean Baker cast her as Alexandra in Tangerine (2015). That performance earned her the Gotham Independent Film Award for Breakthrough Actor and the Independent Spirit Award for Best Supporting Female, and she was named best supporting actress by the San Francisco Film Critics Circle. After Tangerine, she appeared in two 2016 short films, Happy Birthday, Marsha!, in which she played Marsha P. Johnson, and Diane from the Moon. The agency ICM Partners signed her that year to handle film and television acting and producing work. She was later cast in the series Dietland, which started airing on AMC in June 2018.
