How Much Is JoAnna Garcia Swisher Worth?

In a 2008 interview with People Español, JoAnna Garcia Swisher said she's always typecasted as the "girl next door," because she doesn't look like a stereotypical Hispanic actress. As the daughter of a Cuban father and a Spanish-American mother, Garcia Swisher said she's considered the "gringa" or "white girl" of her family.

"When I was starting out, that would have been the time that I could have taken any Spanish-speaking role and never would have been nervous about it," she said. "[But] I didn't look [Hispanic] in a stereotypical way, and the roles just never presented themselves. I was always going out for the cheerleader, or the 'girl next door,' but I definitely want it to be a part of my life."

As of 2020, it seems that no such parts have presented themselves to Garcia Swisher, but it's still possible after her many successes and lengthy career. Hopefully she'll get to play a role that feels more true to her identity in the future.
