Anna Kyra Kefalidi Heyman was born in Gelendzhik, Russia; to a Greek mother, who was a teacher of Russian History and a Jewish father, who was a packaging engineer. Anna Kyra immigrated from Russia at the age of 10.
​
The family went through two tumultuous divorces. Anna gained independence early, and moved out on her own at 17 - eventually adopting her younger sister, and raising her into adulthood.
​
Having obtained a degree in Advertising Design, Anna Kyra was on the "sensible" career path; working as a junior art director - all the while secretly wishing to place herself into her own commercials. After 7 years in the advertising industry, 2 of which were spent taking night and weekend acting classes, it became clearer that being an actor was a full time passion for Anna; and it required a full time commitment.
​
Anna has been a dedicated student with Terry Schreiber Studio, Upright Citizens Brigade, Gordon Hunt Workshop, and Susan Batson Studio. Along with acting skills, Anna volunteered at a local horseback riding barn in exchange for classes and has become a proficient equestrian; eventually giving beginner riding lessons.
In her spare time she paints - specializing in surrealism. She speaks fluent Russian, and American English without an accent (unless a role calls for one).
​
She has worked on short films, television shows, commercials, video game motion capture, virtual reality film, audio book narration voice over, and print modeling projects. Goal role: Ellen Ripley's long lost granddaughter in the next Aliens installment.
