Have people from Laguardia High School had much success in the entertainment business?
Laguardia is pretty much the best performing arts school, but i never hear of people who have gone to laguardia and become very famous and get record deals or star in many movies. i know that alicia keys went to ppas, but that’s pretty much the only person i’ve heard of; and she didnt even go to laguardia. so do people who go to laguardia have much success?

Currently there are recent grads from Laguardia Arts on Broadway, making films, in major orchestras, NYCB etc. Someone from my daughters grad class will be starring in a big budget film shortly. There are so many famous Alums from that school. Like Jennifer Aniston and Liza Minnelli off the top of my head.
Here is a link to a partial list of famous alums in all of the performing arts fields.

Btw. Auditioners looking for kids come to the school for talent. An 11th grader got a part in the original cast of Spring Awakening on Broadway.
Eleanor Scott (SYTYCD in the top10 this time around) is a dance dept grad. 2008
