Biography
Bianca Collins was born in San Diego, California. She now resides in the Los Angeles suburb of Calabasas. She is a graduate of Chaminade College Preparatory, West Hills, California and the University of Southern California (USC). At USC, Bianca's major was Sociology, while she minored in Screen writing.
Career
Her acting career began in 1996, with her first role in the pre-Broadway workshop of Paul Simon's play The Capeman, starring Marc Anthony. Her role was written out of the play before its short 1998 Broadway run. Collins was a member of the 1997 20th anniversary Broadway cast of Annie, both as July and Duffy. She continued as a member of the 1998–1999 national touring company for the musical. Her on-stage acting continued in Los Angeles in 2001 as a cast member of Selena: A Musical Celebration Of Life.
She was contracted to be part of the cast for the 2001 film Glitter, but before production started she was replaced by Brazilian actress Isabel Gomes in the role of young Mariah Carey.
Her television movie credits include the Disney Channel Original Movie Tiger Cruise, the George Lopez holiday movie Naughty or Nice, and the MTV musical The American Mall.
Collins' additional television credits include guest starring in episodes of Law & Order, Strong Medicine, House and The Secret Life of the American Teenager.
From 2004 to 2007, Collins played Patti Perez on Unfabulous, starring alongside Emma Roberts. From 2010 to 2011, she played Lulu on Gigantic until its cancellation. These are her biggest roles, and take advantage of her teen/tween friendly image.
Collins is lead vocalist for the songs 'At the Mall' and 'A Little Bit of Heart Somewhere' on the American Mall soundtrack.
In addition to her career in acting, Collins has been involved in contemporary art. She served as editor of the popular Los Angeles-based radio segment, "Art Talk," writes for Artillery magazine, and as of 2022 is the director of public programs for Zócalo Public Square.[2]
