Wynne Wharff is a versatile, multi-ethnic actor who hails from Brooklyn , NY, and has met success in all arenas of her fascinating life. The product of a Haitian-Cuban mother and a Welsh-Trinidadian father, this dynamic thespian continues to search for challenging projects in which to showcase her talent through her unique essence. Spending her earliest years in her mother's native Haiti , Wynne developed a natural affinity for languages, which fostered her ability to easily pick up various languages accents and dialects when she encountered them. The multi-layered fabric of the Caribbean culture also helped nurture Wynne's worldy view of life, which would later take her to explore various parts of the World before returning to the States to continue her journey in acting. Wynne's exotic looks garnered her a top agency in NY, suited for her sophisticated, yet commercially appealing image. Wynne; however, still had not found a strong enough niche for her striking, multi-ethnic look and eventually began to work independently and with various agents and clients establishing herself until she was sent over to Europe, where there, the markets seemed eager to embrace her rare beauty. In Milan , where she lived for a year, Wynne worked with many great designers. Wynne also spent time working in Paris, Germany and the UK, gaining enough editorial and commercial work to stand confidently on her own again in New York .

Upon graduation, Wynne opened a new chapter in her life and entered the corporate arena, where she became committed to solving the problems of those with lesser means and resources. While working, Wynne could not shake the “Biz” bug, so she decided to get back into the game, capitalizing on the new, changes in the consumer demographic and utilizing the alluring appeal she possessed to tap into what the markets wanted at the time—a face that would amazingly seem to transcend race.

In the meantime, Wynne's agency encouraged her to hone her craft in acting, so while auditioning, she re-entered the classroom as a student at the prestigious William Esper Studios where she studied directly w ith first generation Meisner teacher, Bill Esper of the Neigborhood Playhouse. Wynne also began to expand her range of talents and began to study voice training. As a former dancer since childhood, Wynne's creative abilities classify her as the ultimate triple threat.
