as Carmen Campos on the sixth season of Orange is the New Black 
on HAPPY! opposite Christopher Meloni
Stephanie Gould is an actress, editor, and improviser whose recent appearances include a recurring role as Carmen Campos on the 6th season of the Netflix hit series Orange is the New Black, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel opposite Jane Lynch on Amazon, and HAPPY! opposite Christopher Meloni on Syfy.
In addition to television and several films, Stephanie has an extensive theatrical and improvisation background, working on everything from the Off-Broadway play by Scott Aiello in the title role of Bernie in Bernie and Mikey’s Trip to the Moon at 59E59 Theaters, Shakespeare’s Richard III to her own solo show entitled Walk With Me about her life growing up with cerebral palsy and learning to walk again at 13. The show premiered at the 4th Annual SOLOCOM Festival at the Peoples Improv Theater in 2016, and went on to tour in Boston and returned to NYC for a successful run at the PIT in 2017.
Stephanie is also an advocate for performers with disabilities, an avid lover of animals, and learning new languages like Czech and Greek. She resides in Manhattan and is represented by Kazarian/Measures/Ruskin & Associates, and BAC Talent.
As Bernie, Stephanie Gould’s facial expression, speech patterns, and movement couldn’t be more real. When she hugs, it’s with her whole person. Lack of mindful behavior and confusion feels true, cloudy consciousness as if overwhelming in real time.
Alix Cohen, Women Around Town
Bernie (Stephanie Gould), alternately docile and demanding, rude and sweet, stubborn and accommodating, sets the pace of the Vincolos’ existence…The cast eschews actorly fireworks, starting with Ms. Gould, who herself has a mild form of cerebral palsy and does not shy from Bernie’s difficult side.
Elisabeth Vincentelli, The New York Times
