Victoria Reid is a native of West Hollywood. Since her television debut on Art Linkletter's "Kids say the Darndest Things" in the late 50's, Victoria has had acting in her blood. Her first submission was a heartfelt pitch to the Mickey Mouse Club, but all the cast slots were filled. Alas.For many years, Victoria combined acting and music into one busy career. Also dancing. One of her life's highlights was studying with Mel Blanc, honing her cartoon voice skills. Also with Larry Moss, studying accents/dialects.In the early 70's, Victoria joined the mayhem at the Great American Food and Beverage Company as a singing waitress. Her AKA at the time was "Mouse." Subsequent years were spent traveling the US and Canada as a singer/songwriter which is a nicer version of "Lounge Lizard." Many Holiday Inn Red Slipper Lounges were graced with Victoria's wide array of ditties and a mongo Guild guitar.With TV/vocal gigs in hand (Fame), Victoria became an AFTRA member. She also joined Musician's Local 47. Hollywood!During a slightly dark era in the mid-seventies, Victoria turned to "legal" musical sound-alikes. They could be purchased on cassette at the car wash. She was also cast in a lot of "looping" voice-over gigs - largely crappy animation overdubs in character voices. It paid!The 70's also brought theater performances, such as "Charro" in a Hollywood musical, "I Heard That," with Hodges, James and Smith. Then a ton of studio work. Victoria's name (credit) was on a lot of vinyl covers, especially in Europe, where she had tunes on the charts. She had the privilege of fronting Violin virtuoso Richard Greene's band for a time.In '75, disco was born. So were disco D.J.'s. Victoria hung her hat on 2 turntables and spun vinyl for almost a decade. Yes, there were theatrics and dancing in there as well.From songwriter to screen writer seemed like a good idea, and Victoria collaborated on "Amos and Android: A Race Odyssey." If it had been written recently, it would have flown. Not so much in the 80's. Very not PC!Even now, Victoria and her guitar travel as a team to most workshops and showcases. However, the tide has turned and the career in music gives way to acting full-time. After all, it was in her blood. Show less «
