A graduate of UCLA's School of Theater, Film, and Television, Carly was predestined to a career in the entertainment industry. Growing up in the very tightly-knit Hanks-Wilson families, Carly was exposed at an early age to the discipline and focus needed to succeed in Hollywood. She has paid her dues with extensive theatre credits including "A Midsummer's Night Dream" with Martin Short at the Geffen, the critically-acclaimed "Wounded" at the Powerhouse Theatre, as well as the lead in "Proof" at the Palisades Theater. She has also had the opportunity to work closely with Tom Hanks in Charlie Wilson's War (2007) and Larry Crowne (2011). She enjoys doing sketch comedy at the Strait Jacket Society in Hollywood and hopes to follow in the footsteps of her family in film, TV and theater.
