JoAnna Garcia stars as Reba's daughter Cheyenne, a teenage wife and mother on the comedy Reba.
Born and raised in Tampa, Florida, Garcia first started performing at the age of ten when she auditioned for a local theater production and landed the lead. While she caught the bug immediately, her parents put school first and she continued to feed her passion by acting in local plays. While in high school, Garcia was discovered by Nickelodeon and commuted from Florida to Montreal, Canada to star for two seasons in the television series Are You Afraid of the Dark? After graduating from high school, she spent a year attending Florida State University, but Hollywood was calling. She moved to Los Angeles and, the day she arrived, landed a role in the television movie Holy Joe.
Soon after, she was cast in a recurring role on the acclaimed drama series Party of Five, playing Claudia's friend at boarding school. She also had a memorable recurring role on Freaks and Geeks, playing Vicki Appleby, the popular freshman cheerleader who spent "seven minutes in heaven" with the ultimate geek, Bill. She has also appeared on Family Law, Boston Public, Providence, Dawson's Creek and, while guest-starring on Opposite Sex, became close friends with Allison Mack, who now stars on Smallville.
On the big screen, Garcia was seen in the feature comedy sequel American Pie 2 and the comedy spoof Not Another Teen Movie.
She has also appeared in the original television movies From the Earth to the Moon, Love's Deadly Triangle: The Texas Cadet Murder and The Initiation of Sarah.
When she's not working, Garcia volunteers teaching English as a second language to pre-school-aged children in Los Angeles.
