Antonia Gentry was born in Atlanta, Georgia and briefly left to have a stint at Davidson Fine Arts in Augusta, Georgia for middle and high school. Her first play performance was an original work by her mother Sandra, who has a knack for poetry and art. Attending a fine-arts school and fueled by her desire to perform again, Antonia performed in many plays that competed at the regional, state, and national levels by the time she was a high-school senior.

Returning to Atlanta to study at the prestigious Emory University, she is excited to have been able to acquire many commercial credits, and substantial Netflix credits, before graduating with the Class of 2019. She is also proud to have been an active leader in Emory’s Rathskellar Comedy Improv troupe and perform alongside Atlanta theater professionals at their own Equity theater in plays such as Romeo and Juliet (as Juliet), The Tempest, and more.

Two movies that have forever changed her life are Pan’s Labrynth and The Pianist, and she is looking forward to a fruitful career post-University.
