An accomplished actress, Joelle Carter has been acting in film, television and theater for the past decade. Carter currently stars in the critically acclaimed FX drama "Justified," playing the role of Ava Crowder.
Carter was born in Georgia to an army family and was subsequently raised throughout the United States. She attended high school in Albany, Georgia, and then enrolled at Augusta College on a full athletic scholarship for swimming and cross-country. Carter began her modeling career shortly thereafter and moved to New York to pursue modeling full time. Falling in love with acting, she began her theatrical studies in NYC and appeared on stage and screen almost immediately.
Carter can be seen in such feature cult favorites as "High Fidelity" and "American Pie 2," and indies "Swimming" and "Lisa Picard is Famous." In addition, Carter has starred in numerous television projects, including the controversial series "Wonderland" created by Peter Berg ("Friday Night Lights").

Carter also co-produced and starred in the short "Girl and a Gun," which won Best Original Short at the 2008 Washougal International Film Festival. She was thrilled to attend the 2008 Cannes Film Festival with the film, "Jumping In," in which she starred. Carter recently attended the Boston Film Festival where her latest film "To Be Friends" (directed by Jim Eckhart, executive produced by Aaron Eckhart and co-starring Todd Stashwick) was honored and opened the festival.
Other features include "City of Jerks" (directed by Phedon Papamichael) and "Eyes to See," both released in 2011.
