Heather Elizabeth Morris

Heather Elizabeth Morris is an American actress born in Thousand Oaks, CA. Daughter to Jeannie and Stan Morris, Heather grew up in Scottsdale, AZ, and started her love for dancing when she was merely still in diapers. Growing up, she spent her days dreaming of becoming a star, recording herself on her parents old tape recorder and performing Britney Spears at her middle school talent show; she was never not performing. In 2003, Heather booked it to Los Angeles and competed with her dance group on the Arsenio Hall Variety Show, Star Search, and in 2006, Heather's talent landed her in the top 40 on FOX's So You Think You Can Dance. After spending only two semesters at Arizona State University, in 2006 Heather officially moved out to Los Angeles and began auditioning, landing her first dance job as Beyoncé's back up dancer on 'The Beyonce Experience' World Tour nearly 6 months after making her big decision. In 2009, Heather began studying at the Meisner school for Acting "Playhouse West" in Los Angeles. She was given the opportunity by choreographer Zach Woodlee to audition for Ryan Murphy in the upcoming Fox comedy Glee, and after two failed attempts...Heather learned she landed the role of "Brittany S. Pierce" strictly because of her incredible dancing capabilities. Heather has worked on productions like the Blue Sky franchise Ice Age and Harmony Korrine's feature Spring Breakers. She is an Executive Producer for The Bystanders Podcast, starring Jane Lynch, Kristin Chenoweth, Oscar Nunez and Michael Hitchcock.
