Ingrid Chauvin (born October 3, 1973 in Argenteuil) is a French actress, known for her roles on the miniseries Méditerranée, Dolmen and the series Femmes de loi.

Early life

Born to a computer worker father and a painter mother, Ingrid has wanted to be an actress since her childhood, despite her parents opposition. After her studies, she worked as a professional make-up artist while attending to some castings for model. Her first gains allowed her to take acting classes. Noticed by AB Production, Ingrid performed small roles in television series for young viewers, like Salut les Musclés, Seconde B, Les Années fac, Le Miel et les abeilles, L'École des passions and Studio des artistes.

Acting career

Theatre

It was in the theatre that Ingrid really started her career, by acting alongside Michel Creton in A. R. Gurney's Sylvia in 1998, in the Théâtre Hébertot (Paris), and then opposite Michel Roux in Patrick Cargill's Tromper n'est pas jouer in the Théâtre Saint-Georges (Paris). She would retrieve her roles on both plays for a tour through the french countryside.

She is due to star in a comedy with her partner in the serie "Femmes de lois", Natacha Amal^[1].

Television

In 1997, Ingrid participated in an episode of Michael Vianney's television series Les BÅ“uf-carottes, having since become a regular presence in prime time police procedural television series. She acted in Marc Angelos's B.R.I.G.A.D., in 1999, and then accepts a role in the police drama Femmes de loi, in 2000. She also was present in television movies like Tapage nocturne and Le fil du rasoir (both Gérard Cuq's). The young actress then chooses to continue this new adventure and abandons the cast of B.R.I.G.A.D..

Consequently, she continues a successful career in television movies like Yves Boisset's Dormir avec le diable, in 2000. The following year, Ingrid plays Marie Valbonne in Henri Helman's Méditerranée—the proeminent summer series of TF1. Four years later, she returns to the univers of summer sagas, always on TF1, by holding the leading role in the six-episode fantasy/police miniseries Dolmen, directed by Didier Albert.

In 2007, Ingrid is set to appear in a Dolmen sequel, as well as in the television movie Chassé-croisé.

Cinéma

As for 2006, Ingrid Chauvin hardly worked for the big screen. Nevertheless, she played the leading role in Gérard Cuq's 1999 movie, Les Percutés.
