Claudia Elmore is an American actress hailing from Oahu, Hawaii. She is of Indigenous American/Hispanic and European American heritage. Her mother, Susana Navarijo Garcia native to Guatemala met her father, Daniel Elmore, while he was serving in the Peace Corps. They moved to Hawaii where Elmore grew up on Oahu's western country hillside among the sugar cane fields and red dirt hills of Makakilo.
Elmore's love of acting emerged through her childhood watching children's theatre and Japanese Kabuki theatre performances. She studied both mediums of storytelling during her undergraduate degree at the University of Hawaii, and would later go on to earn an MFA in acting from the USC School of Dramatic Arts.
Learning under Andy Robinson, and other notable faculty at USC, she embraced the wide field of Western Classics in performances including the likes of Euripides' "Trojan Women", Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew" to Tennessee Williams in his "Portrait of a Madonna". She has garnered credits on the Emmy-award-winning comedy series, The Kominsky Method, alongside Alan Arkin and Michael Douglas and on the long-standing television drama, Hawaii Five-O.
