Dorly Jean-Louis is a Canadian actress and model. Her love for acting evolved from appearing in independent short films and working as a Reporter and Host for campus newspapers, television and radio stations. No doubt her competitive edge is due in part to her formal training in Broadcast Journalism. Dorly has been cast in several journalistic roles; as Reporter Talisha in the Hallmark film Daniel’s Daughter, a TV News Anchor in the crime drama series Missing and as a Reporter in the dramatic comedy Vacation With Derek. Dorly also appeared as a recurring Guest Host on the weekly web series Twenty Something TV, an all-Female Talk Show discussing controversial topics, fashion, pop culture and lifestyle. 

Dorly was awarded the distinction of Role Model at the Black Canadian Women Awards issued by the Diversity Advancement Network and the House of Commons, as one of Toronto’s Inspirational Woman by Soulful Image Magazine and one of the 100 Black Women to Watch at The Canadian International Black Women Event Gala in 2017. That same year, Dorly hosted her first book release party as co-author of Sweet Success Sisters published by Thompson & Co Publishing. In this anthology, she shares the many lessons, experiences, obstacles and challenges this boss lady faced not only as an actress but a business owner in her journey to achieve a successful career. Dorly’s story is one of unyielding faith, perseverance, commitment, dedication and determination. A career that now spans well over fifteen years, her next major role will be alongside Larenz Tate in the feature film Business Ethics.
