While I’ve been a working actor for over 30 years…

…I also know that:

There is no guaranteed path to acting ‘success’.

And if anyone is trying to rope you in with magic shortcuts to your first Oscar or a promise of magic-fix industry connections that open seemingly locked doors… RUN!

  • What it comes down to is your mindset and your craft.

  • The objective perspective & support of someone who’s walked in your shoes.

  • And carbonated energy & powdered unicorn tears, baby!

Hi, I’m Adria Tennor

I’ve honed my craft studying acting and directing at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, and with teachers like Larry Moss, Tom Todoroff, and the late great Freddie Karemen, to name a few.

You might know me from both TV staples (hello, Mad Men’s sharp-tongued Joyce Darling) and Oscar-winning blockbusters such as The Artist (yes, Zimmer’s ever-efficient assistant).

My latest passion? Supporting the next generation of actors towards your audacious career goals.

“I have been in Hollywood for a very very long time and I have been through million acting classes and had a million coaches, and I have to tell you, Adria Tennor, in my opinion, is one of the best …”
