Pay attention to this name: Connie Marie Flores! Connie was born and raised in Los Angeles and her parents are from Guatemala. Since she was 3 years old, she knew she was born to be a actress, after watching theater shows on PBS.

Connie trained at the America Musical and Dramatic Academy where she received her bachelor’s degree in fine arts. Some years passed and she decided to focus her attention on film acting.

And all her efforts was paying off when she got her first role in the critic acclaimed film Marriage Story. From Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Noah Baumbach, the film is an incisive and compassionate portrait of a marriage breaking up and a family staying together. Marriage Story stars Scarlett Johansson, Adam Driver, Laura Dern, Alan Alda, Ray Liotta, and more.

I had the opportunity to chat with the newcomer and talented actress over the phone. We spoke about working with Noah, being in the set with Scarlett Johansson and Adama Driver, how much the entertainment industry changed, and more.
