Carly Craig            

Actress Known for "Sideswiped"

Currently, Carly is co-creator and star of YouTube Premium’s Sideswiped and recurring on ABC’s American Housewife as Katy Otto’s nemesis, Tara Summers. Though she studied drama for years at The Stella Adler Academy, a conversation with Dan Ackroyd would change her life when he suggested she study at Second City, where she later graduated. She met famed manager Bernie Brillstein while waiting tables and decided to put on a comedy show with her classmates. Bernie came to that show and soon after, signed her as a client. Before long, Director David Wain cast her in Role Models, and the Farrelly Brothers cast her in The Heartbreak Kid, Hall Pass, The Three Stooges and Dumb and Dumber To. She also starred in Live at the Foxes Den, Flock of Dudes, Paranormal Movie and many more. On TV, she’s been in Stephen Merchant’s Hello Ladies on HBO, Childrens Hospital, Burning Love, Cougar Town, Newsreaders, and Crossroads of History.

Other projects include Mike Leigh’s critically-lauded live show Ecstasy, Neil LaBute’s Bash, independent feature film Star Sucker with Tom Arnold, and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf, which was directed by Oscar nominee Mark Ruffalo.
