"I think the relationships between the women are real and honest. I don't think it's a fairy tale portrayal of the way that women interact with each other. I think it's pretty much dead-on as far as my relationship with Ally." -TV Quest, October 24,1998
Lisa Nicole Carson's career got off to a singing start, when at 15 years of age she played Ronette in a local production of the musical Little Shop of Horrors. Soon after, Carson began to train with the Negro Ensemble Company and began appearing on a variety of off-Broadway shows. Her theater credits include Club 12, Hey Little Walter, Little Shop Of Horrors, Tar Beach Incidentals and Work It!. After working for a while on stage, Carson moved on to television where she performed as a regular on the Apollo Comedy Hour from 1992-1993. Lisa Nicole's feature film debut came in 1992 with Let's Get Buzzee which was soon followed by a string of feature films and made-for-television movies, including 1995's Diva's. In 1996, Lisa Nicole Carson received a major career break, when she was cast as Carla Reese, the unwed mother of Peter Benton's baby, on NBC's hit series ER.
