Biography

Monica Ramon, a talented actress from Sabadell, Catalonia, Spain, near the city of Barcelona, hails from an artistic family with a rich cultural heritage. Her grandfather, Lluis Vila Plana, was a well-known Catalan Spanish artist, setting the stage for Monica's own foray into the world of acting.

Monica's early life was marked by a significant tragedy when her twin brother was severely injured in a car accident in 1992. The experience of watching her brother struggle to regain his ability to speak and walk again had a profound impact on Monica, making her a stronger and more resilient person.

Despite this challenging period, Monica continued to pursue her passion for acting, landing her first role in the Spanish television series "Happy End" (1997) alongside the renowned Spanish actress Mónica López. Her subsequent role in the Spanish feature film "Primats" (1997),directed by Carlos Jove from Barcelona, further solidified her position as a rising star in the Spanish entertainment industry.

Monica's thirst for knowledge and skill led her to study modeling in Barcelona with Francina Diaz and acting at the Chekov Theatre in Madrid, Spain, with Angel Gutierrez. She also underwent extensive training in the Stanislavsky method and accumulated significant experience in the world of theatre.

After relocating to America, Monica continued to appear in various Spanish television series and commercials, working alongside notable actors such as Damian Chapa and Steven Bauer. Her impressive filmography includes the indie feature "Snafu" and the movie "XII" by Steven Goldenstein.

Monica's short film "Dirty Girl" (2008),directed by Jennifer Clary, earned the prestigious "Bronze Remi Award" at WorldFest Houston 2008. More recently, she starred in the biopic "A Beautiful Soul" (2016) by Cody Mullins, playing the role of "Pier Angeli" in a film about the life of James Dean.
