An ebullient actress, you might say Joanna Williams embodies the wholesomeness of Amy Adams, the poise and smarts of Hilary Swank, the earthiness of Kate Hudson and especially the quirky charm of Zoey Deschanel. She is thrilled to make her entrance in the professional acting community with a BFA and a stint as a arts-salon-thrower and photographer the past few years. She recently studied improv at the Upright Citizen's Brigade and had a ball. She is currently auditioning & living in New York City.
