An accomplished singer, dancer and actress, Corina Katt Ayala was born to Puerto
Rican parents and raised in such urban environs as New York's Spanish
Harlem and the South Bronx. The raven-haired Corina exhibited an early
aptitude for entertaining that led to years of formal training in
ballet, voice and theatre before landing her first recording contract
with Cutting Records and releasing three independent dance hits "Out of
Control", "Give me back my heart" and "Loving you like crazy"> Her 1991
self-titled Cutting/Atlantic debut album spawned three Billboard
chart-toppers: "Temptation", "Whispers" and "Now that you're gone".
Corina's success in dance music afforded her the opportunity to star
alongside Latin crossover crooner Marc Anthony in the East Side Story (1990). In 1999,
Corina was featured in the Tim Robbins-directed, Touchstone Pictures
release Cradle Will Rock (1999) playing artist Frida Kahlo opposite 'Ruben Blades', 'John Cusak'
and Vanessa Redgrave. She has since appeared in several feature films, including
the Italian motion picture Doors of the unknown, Devils Kiss, _Big Apple (2000/II)_
and _Funny Valentine (2002)_.
