Biography


Mélissa Désormeaux-Poulin was born to a family unconnected with the dramatic arts: her mother is a director of communications and her father is a teacher. She studied at an arts school at Lanaudière.[1]


Career


Mélissa Désormeaux-Poulin made her debut as an actress in an advertising campaign for the cereals Magic Crunch and Magic Post at the age of six.[1] She was chosen later to act in the series Jamais deux sans toi (1989-1993), followed by the role of Marie in the series Une faim de loup (1990). Her next role was in the series Les Héritiers Duval (1994-1996). Her versatility and breadth as an actress have been showcased in roles such as the disabled Madeleine (in Asbestos, 2002), a Spanish militant (in Chartrand et Simonne, 2003), a drug dealer (in Grand Ourse, 2003) and as a disorganised rebel (in Emma, 2000-2004).

The role that brought her the most fame, especially among Canadian teens, is that in the successful À vos marques... party! franchise about a high-school swimming team.[2] She had a regular role in the series La Promesse, which ended in 2012.[3]

In 2008, she participated in Dédé à travers les brumes against Sébastien Ricard. In 2010, she played Jeanne Marwan in the Academy Award nominated film Incendies.
