Details:
Marla’s career started when she joined PASLA (Performing Arts Society of Los Angeles) with her daughter, Angela, and studied at the Mafundi Institute and Watts Writers Workshop. She later joined the Zodiac Theatre and performed in several well received productions including Medea, Amen Corner and The Gingerbread Lady. After a few bit parts, Ms. Gibbs landed the plum role of “Florence” in The Jefferson’s where she gained international notoriety. After The Jefferson’s 9th successful season, Ms. Gibbs landed a spin-off series, Checking-In. It was interrupted by a writer’s strike and never recovered and she returned to The Jefferson’s. Soon after, her daughter Angela produced the award winning Christine Houston play 227 in which Ms. Gibbs was cast as the lead by noted Director Ed Cambridge. The play was such a smashing success that Ms. Gibbs purchased the TV rights. After The Jefferson’s was cancelled, she along with Norman Lear’s Embassy TV, sold and helped produce the series for NBC. 227 became a five-year hit series now in syndication on TV One.
Marla is an eight time NAACP Image Award winner, four time Emmy Nominee, eight time Family TV award winner, Essence Woman of the Year, Frances William’s Women in Theatre West Award winner, Special Black Emmy Nominee honoree, Winner of two CEBA Awards, and a host of National and Local honors. In 2000, Marla received a Best Supporting Actress award from The Southern California Method Fest. Her other credits include TV’s ER, Cold Case, The Dave Chappelle Show, Listen Up, The Nick Cannon Show, Judging Amy, Touched By an Angel, Arliss, The King of Queens, Dawson’s Creek, and several voice-overs for HBO’s Happily Ever After Animated Series for Children and Disney’s 1,001 Dalmatians. Marla recently hosted a special for HGTV called “The Dish on Kitchens.” Her most recent series work is a recurring role on NBC’s daytime drama Passions. She spent several seasons on ABC’s The Hughley’s, playing the mother of D.L. Hughley and was Arsenio Hall’s mother on Martial Law. Marla recently starred in the feature films Stanley’s Gig and The Visit. Other recent film credits include The Brothers, Foolish, Lost and Found, Why Do Fools Fall in Love, Border to Border, and Up Against the Wall. Marla appeared in Eve Ensler’s Play “The Vagina Monologues” in New York City and completed a role in the not yet released film “Two for Paula.” She recently starred in the New Theatre Restaurant’s dinner theatre production of Neil Simon’s Proposals.
