Ele Keats

Born in Paris, France, to copywriter Sacha Georgescu (of Romanian descent) and Ford model Jan McGuire, Keats was raised in New York City, Europe and Los Angeles.

[citation needed] After moving to Los Angeles she launched her acting career at fifteen, being featured in a Michael Jackson Pepsi commercial and in 1988 she appeared in LL Cool J's Going Back to Cali music video, directed by Ric Menello.

[citation needed] Small television roles quickly followed, including the pilot for The Outsiders, produced by Francis Ford Coppola and a recurring part in the CBS sitcom Dear John starring Judd Hirsch.

A rapid succession of bigger roles followed in films such as There Goes My Baby (filmed in 1990 but released in 1994 due to Orion Pictures' bankruptcy[2]), Garry Marshall's Frankie and Johnny (opposite Al Pacino and Michelle Pfeiffer), the Disney musical Newsies as Sarah Jacobs, love interest of Christian Bale's Jack Kelly, and Frank Marshall's acclaimed drama Alive.

During the 1990s, Keats landed leading and supporting roles in television and independent projects such as Lipstick Camera, the thriller-drama I Shot a Man in Vegas, Disney Channel's White Wolves II: Legend of the Wild, Frank LaLoggia's thriller The Haunted Heart (later re-named Mother, starring Diane Ladd and Olympia Dukakis) and the CBS prime-time drama Race Against Time: the Search of Sarah (in the title role).

[5] Her creations have been featured in several magazines, worn in many movies and TV shows and received an overwhelming response from celebrity clientele, who praise her inspirational designs as “simply stunning.” [6] Keats counts Diane Keaton, Elizabeth Berkley, Poppy Montgomery, Carla Gugino, Jessica Biel, Laura Dern, Stefanie Scott, Cameron Diaz, and Mandy Moore among her clients.
