Laura received her Bachelor’s degree in Art History from the University of Virginia and completed her Master’s in Italian Baroque Painting at the Courtauld Institute in London.
During her graduate studies she worked for Sotheby’s and after finishing her degree transferred to New York City where she became part of the Latin American Art Department. She spent much of her free time in Manhattan raising money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and twice led a team in the annual Light the Night Walk. In 2006, she realized a goal to travel and teach internationally, and she spent a year teaching art and English to children and pre-teens in multiple countries, including Argentina and South Africa. Upon returning to the States, she came to Los Angeles where she joined the contemporary art world of Gagosian Gallery.
The desire to continue her work with mentoring children led her to Venice Arts, where she teaches Art Discovery and now to Project Libertad. She wishes she had the speed and wit of a heroine in a screwball comedy and does not enjoy writing personal bios of any kind.

Quick story: During the shooting of Runnin’ At Midnite there was a scene that required our lead, Manny Vidal, to ride a bike through the streets of South Tucson. Now, being as we made the @$# movie for, oh, about 50k, we didn’t have any car rigs or camera mounts to speak of - but what we did have was a pickup truck. So, Robert Ballo, our DP, and myself, we strapped down our Sony 700 HDCAM into the back of a pickup and tried to get the footage that way. Read more
