Jenna Morrison's interest in acting started at the age of seven. Her first experience was in school plays and at nine she participated in her first dance recital. Jenna grew up in a small town of only 1,000 people, so there was little opportunity to follow her dream. At the age of eleven, she found an acting school advertisement in a magazine and asked her parents if, while they were on vacation at Disneyland, they could check out the school. She enrolled and once or twice a month for about a year she traveled 12 hours each way to take classes.

Jenna has had several acting jobs since she began. Her role of Debbie on The Amanda Show has brought her the most recognition. She filmed 13 episodes of The Amanda Show altogether. Jenna was nominated for a Young Artist Award for Best Guest Starring Performance in a Comedy Series for The Amanda Show in 2001 and also in 2002. She also won a Best Supporting Actress award at a New York film festival for a dramatic short film she did for the L.A. Film School. One of the first comedy performances for Jenna was at The World Famous Improve on Melrose in Hollywood where she did stand up comedy.

Jenna continues to be one of the top in her class in school. She received the Principal's Award two years in a row and also the Presidential Award of Excellence, signed by President Clinton.
