Getting her start on the CBS rival of "Star Search" as a singer, Q'Orianka soon followed that appearance up with a small role in "The Grinch." After an exhaustive search for a Native American actress to play Pocahontas opposite Colin Farrell in the Terrence Malick epic "The New World", Q'Orianka was selected for her star turn.
The name Q'orianka translates to "golden eagle" in the Incan language of Quechua.
