Elva Guerra        

Two-Spirit Indigenous Actor Known for "Reservation Dogs"

Elva Guerra is a rising Native American and Two-Spirit actor best known for their role as Jackie in FX's series "Reservation Dogs," a teen comedy focused on the lives of Indigenous teenagers in rural Oklahoma. The show is the first to feature all Indigenous writers and directors and an almost entirely Indigenous cast. After making their acting debut in 2021, they have since been featured in "Dark Winds" and "Rutherford Falls."

As a queer Two-Spirit Indigenous actor, Guerra is passionate about shining a light on issues of homophobia and transphobia in the entertainment industry and, in turn, helping queer Indigenous kids struggling with their identity.
