What Others Are Saying
Laurel is one of the best, most versatile, actresses I have ever worked with. Her talent is immeasurable and her selfless, kind nature is a pleasure to be around. Having worked with her in a class and seeing her screen time, I knew I could trust her. As I wrote my film, Painted Woman, and constructed the wiley, strong, lovable Ellie, I knew it was made for Laurel. She did not disappoint and stole every scene.

Over the years, I’ve been fortunate enough to work with some very fine actors. Laurel Harris is right up there with the best. She has an intuitive feel for material, and she brings comedy and drama to life in believable, moving ways. Caring. Generous and always in-the-moment, she’s truly a gifted talent.

I've had the privilege of knowing and working with Laurel for a span of years. She has always been the consummate professional...vigilant, prepared, flexible and self driven. Her ability to bring her inner world to her craft is the sign of a true artist. A Casting Director is inspired by actors like Laurel Harris.

Website Laurel is a rare individual. To say she is a talented actor is to undermine the level of understanding and intelligence she brings to a role. She is thoughtful, insightful, and a joy to work with. As a playwright and director of more than
five decades of involvement in the theatre, in Britain, India, the Middle East and here in the U.S.A. I have not often had the privilege and pleasure of working with such a person as Laurel. It is probably every director’s dream to have a company of players who embody all that is best toward nurturing a mature, professional and happy cast of actors, those who also possess the chops for ‘delivering the character’ and who understand stagecraft and commitment to the production without the commonplace affectation of ego that is so widespread in the profession. Add to this an understanding of punctuality (both on and off the stage), a penchant for quick learning, a humble acceptance of ‘direction’ and above all a simple integrity as a person—and you have Laurel Harris. To put it simply, I would be happy to offer her any role—without an audition!—for given what I know of her and her passion as a performer, I have the utmost confidence that whatever it is, she will meet the challenge in the most appropriate way.

I have been lucky enough to have Laurel be a part of my audio drama series Destination Freedom Black Radio Days. I know firsthand her talent as a voice actor and narrator for documentaries. I have seen her work in commercials, feature films, shorts, and specials. Laurel Harris - the name to me always brings up the image of a true professional. An artist that is great at everything that they set out to do.
