Taryn Manning is an American actress and singer, best known for her portrayal of Tiffany "Pennsatucky" Doggett in the acclaimed Netflix series Orange Is the New Black.
Taryn Gail Manning was born on November 6, 1978, in Falls Church, Virginia, to Bill Manning and Sharyn Louise. She is the younger of two children. Shortly after her birth, her parents divorced, and her mother relocated with Taryn and her brother, Kellin, to Arizona.
Raised by a single mother in a financially limited household, Taryn spent part of her youth living in a trailer park. Despite the hardships, her mother supported her early interests by enrolling her in karate, dance, and acting classes. Manning excelled in these pursuits, becoming a state champion in karate for her age group and showing promise in dance. These foundational experiences would later influence her path in the entertainment industry.
Manning gained widespread recognition for her role as Tiffany "Pennsatucky" Doggett, a complex character in the Netflix series Orange Is the New Black. The show, which premiered in 2013 and concluded in July 2019, was praised for its ensemble cast, rich storytelling, and social commentary. Manning appeared in all seven seasons and became a fan favorite for her intense and layered performance.
Following the series finale, Manning shared mixed feelings about her time on the show. In a now-deleted Instagram post, she expressed emotional difficulty with her experience, citing personal struggles during production. However, she also acknowledged the impact the show had on her career and its cultural significance. The post garnered attention for its candid tone, but Manning later shifted focus towards using her influence for advocacy and personal growth.
Beyond Orange Is the New Black, Manning has built a diverse career in film, television, and music. She appeared in various films, including 8 Mile (2002), Hustle & Flow (2005), and Crossroads (2002), showcasing her range as an actress. As a musician, she is the lead vocalist of the electronic duo Boomkat and has pursued solo projects, blending pop, rock, and electronic genres.
Her entertainment career, which spans over two decades, has earned her a respectable net worth. While estimates vary, her net worth is broadly reported to be in the range of $3 million, accumulated through acting, music, and brand collaborations.
Taryn Manning's personal life has received media attention, particularly her past relationship with Jeanine Heller. In 2015, Heller was sentenced to 45 days in jail for violating a restraining order after repeatedly contacting Manning through anonymous means. Heller had previously claimed they were involved romantically, though the events surrounding their relationship were marked by legal disputes and personal conflict.
In 2014, Manning tweeted that she was in a relationship but chose not to reveal the identity of her boyfriend. Openly bisexual, she has spoken candidly about her sexual orientation, noting that although she is attracted to both men and women, she prefers to date men. She has not publicly disclosed details about children or confirmed any current long-term partnerships.
