Nina Arianda made her break-out debut in the 2010 off-Broadway production of Venus in Fur just months after graduating from NYU’s Tisch graduate acting program. Her performance garnered the attention of the entire New York theater community. Following her off-Broadway acclaim, Nina procured roles in Woody Allen’s Oscar-winning film Midnight in Paris, Tom McCarthy’s Win Win, and Vera Farmiga’s Higher Ground. Venus in Fur transferred to Broadway in 2011 where Nina’s performance went on to become the most critically acclaimed of the 2011-2012 season resulting in her winning the 2012 Tony Award for Best Actress in a Play. This recognition followed her 2011 nod for her Broadway debut performance as “Billie Dawn” in Born Yesterday.
