Biography
Renée Elise Goldsberry is a Tony and Grammy Award-winning and Emmy-nominated stage and screen actress, singer, and producer.
Goldsberry starred in the critically acclaimed Netflix musical comedy series Girls5Eva, for which she has received Critics Choice and TCA Award nominations for her breakthrough role as “Wickie Roy,” a member of a one-hit-wonder band from the ‘90s who gets a second shot at fame. Her performance—which showcases both her acting and singing chops—has been hailed as “Emmy-worthy” (Vanity Fair), “the show’s comic standout” (The Hollywood Reporter), “a hilarity hurricane” (Entertainment Weekly), and “TV’s funniest diva” (The Daily Beast).
A documentary about her life, Satisfied, which is executive produced by Broadway luminaries Audra McDonald and Kelli O’Hara as well as Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment, premiered to great acclaim at the Tribeca Film Festival. The documentary—featuring interviews with Lin-Manuel Miranda, Ariana DeBose, and Goldsberry herself—intimately charts her journey navigating her family and career amid the breakout success of her role in Hamilton. She also starred in the independent feature film Albany Road, directed by Christine Swanson. The film follows “Celeste” (Goldsberry) as she is on her way to the most important meeting of her career, being forced to share a rental car with her ex-fiancé's mother (Lynn Whitfield), only to discover that the mother is hiding a major secret.
Goldsberry’s debut album, Who I Really Am, is a deeply personal and genre-defying project years in the making. Blending pop, spoken word, and influences from her theater roots, the album embraces raw, unapologetic vulnerability. A collection of original songs, Who I Really Am explores themes of heartbreak, love, family, self-discovery, and female unity, offering an unfiltered look at Goldsberry’s artistic voice.
Goldsberry is perhaps best known for originating the role of “Angelica Schuyler” in Lin-Manuel Miranda’s groundbreaking Broadway musical, Hamilton, for which she won the Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Musical as well as Drama Desk and Lucille Lortel Awards. For the original cast recording, she won a Grammy for Best Musical Theater Album, and for the Disney+ filmed version, she received a Primetime Emmy nomination for Outstanding Actress in a Supporting Role in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie.
A stage veteran, her Broadway work includes some of the most iconic musicals in recent memory, including: The Color Purple, originating the role of “Nettie”; as “Nala” in Disney’s stage version of The Lion King; and as “Mimi” in the final Broadway cast of the Pulitzer Prize and Tony-winning Rent, which was filmed for television. On Broadway, she also starred in David Lindsay-Abaire’s celebrated play, Good People, starring Frances McDormand and for which Goldsberry received an Outer Critics Circle Award nomination for Outstanding Featured Actress in a Play. Her first major stage appearance was in the national tour of Dreamgirls.
Goldsberry’s New York stage credits also include acclaimed turns at The Public’s Shakespeare in the Park: The Tempest, in which she portrayed “Prospero”; and Two Gentlemen of Verona, for which she was nominated for the Drama League’s Distinguished Performance Award. Her Off-Broadway credits also include The Baker's Wife, Love's Labor's Lost, As You Like It, and I'm Getting My Act Together and Taking It on the Road.
Her screen credits include the title role in The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks starring Oprah Winfrey; memorable supporting performances in Marvel’s She Hulk and Netflix’s Altered Carbon; a recurring role on CBS’s The Good Wife; a supporting turn opposite Sterling K. Brown, Taylor Russell and Kelvin Harrison Jr. in the lauded independent feature Waves; a featured cameo in Lin-Manuel Miranda’s feature directorial debut Tick, Tick… Boom!, and two Daytime Emmy nominations for her fan-favorite performance as “Evangeline Williamson” on the daytime drama One Life to Live, for which she was also nominated for two NAACP Image Awards. Her first recurring onscreen performance was as one of Vonda Shepard’s backup singers across all five seasons of Ally McBeal.
