Rebecca Grace Tobin, known as Becca Tobin, born January 18, 1986 in Atlanta, Georgia, is an acclaimed American actress, singer, and dancer. She grew up in Marietta, Georgia and attended Joseph Wheeler High School.

Tobin's acting journey kicked off at the tender age of four when she played a Christmas tree in her school's holiday pageant. After high school, she pursued her passion for performance arts and graduated from the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York City in 2007. Her professional career also began on the stage with her notable role in the musical Cats, in Houston, Texas.

She achieved wide recognition after portraying cheerleader Kitty Wilde in the Fox musical comedy-drama television series Glee from 2012 until its end in 2015.

Several songs she performed in the series have been released as singles and featured on soundtrack albums.

In addition to her roles on stage and in Glee, Tobin has made appearances in several other TV series, including Drop Dead Diva on Lifetime and NCIS: Los Angeles on CBS.
