Women You Should Know: DeWanda Wise

With her striking good looks, DeWanda Wise should be a household name. DeWanda turned heads, wearing a money green dress at the AOL Build Series in NYC on Friday.

DeWanda, 34, is best known as Nola Darling in Spike Lee’s Netflix TV series She’s Gotta Have It, based on his 1986 film. DeWanda plays a Black, pansexual polyamorous activist and artist who juggles three lovers (because one is never enough).

She’s Gotta Have It (2018) is on MSN’s list of 11 Underrated Shows On Netflix.

DeWanda is a vegan, which explains her svelte shape. She married fellow actor Alano Miller in 2009 after three months of dating. The couple reside in Pasadena, California.
