From the board room to film and TV sets to Capitol Hill, Angelica Ross is a leading figure of success and strength, in the movement for Transgender and racial equality. A series regular on the ninth season of Ryan Murphy’s FX hit "American Horror Story: 1984" and confirmed to return for the currently untitled season ten, Ross is blazing a trail, kicking open doors, and building her own table with ample open seats.

In 2020, Ross became a face of Nicolas Ghesquière’s pre-Fall campaign for Louis Vuitton — a campy homage to vintage sci-fi book covers.

Ross’ acting breakthrough came in the form of Ryan Murphy’s Award-Winning FX hit, "Pose" — which follows NYC’s Black and Latino LGBTQ and gender-nonconforming ballroom culture scene in the 80’s and early 90’s. Making TV history, the show features the largest transgender cast ever for a scripted series.

Since studying acting at Florida Atlantic University, Ross has appeared across numerous mediums, including film, television, and theatre. One project, the Emmy nominated (Outstanding Short Form Comedy or Drama) web series Her Story, received special recognition at the GLAAD Media Awards. A segment Ross appeared in on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah was honored with a GLAAD Award for Outstanding Talk Show Episode. She’s also appeared in "Transparent" (Amazon), "Claws" (TNT), "Doubt" (CBS), and "Danger & Eggs" (Amazon).

Ross also works behind the camera. She executive produced and appeared in the Daytime Emmy-nominated web series "King Ester" (2019), and in the short film "Missed Connections" (2017), which went on to be an official selection at the Outfest LGBTQ Film Festival, the La Femme International Film Festival, and the Baltimore International Black Film Festival.

Ross is the President of Miss Ross, Inc. and founder of TransTech Social Enterprises, a program that helps people lift themselves out of poverty through technical training, digital work creating a social impact, and bringing economic empowerment to marginalized communities.
