Carla Gugino
- Actress

Carla Gugino was born in Sarasota, Florida, to Carl Gugino, an orthodontist. She is of Italian (father) and English-Irish (mother) ancestry. Gugino moved with her mother to Paradise,
California, when Carla was just five years old. During her childhood,
they moved many times within the state. But she remained a straight-A
student throughout high school and graduated as valedictorian. A major
modeling agency discovered Carla in San Diego and sent her to New York
to begin a new career when she was 15. New York was more than she could
handle at that young age, so she returned to LA in the summer, modeling
and enrolling in an acting class at the suggestion of her aunt,
Carol Merrill, known from Let's Make a Deal (1963). During her free time, Carla enjoys yoga,
traveling and spending time with her friends in Los
Angeles.
