Ari Graynor, a 25-year-old actress from Boston, Massachusetts, was first noticed as Caitlin Rucker on HBO’s hit series “The Sopranos.”

Graynor, who is also a talented photographer, attended Buckingham Browne & Nichols, a private school in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut.

An accomplished New York stage actor, Graynor is gaining recognition for her role in the romantic comedy “Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist” as Caroline — the hard-partying best friend of the film’s protagonist, Norah (Kat Dennings).

Her performance is “fearless and funny,” notes Lisa Schwarzbaum at Entertainment Weekly.

Graynor’s performance “threatens to steal most of her (Dennings) scenes,” writes Rick McGinnis at Metro News.

“Comic gold,” says Jeff Bayer at The Scorecard Review.

Other film credits include “Mystic River,” “Book Of Love,” “Game 6,” “For Your Consideration,” and “An American Crime.”

Two upcoming projects “Youth in Revolt” and “Whip It” — are slated for release in 2009.
