Jama Williamson is one of the most popular and richest TV Actress who was born on March 12, 1974 in Evansville, Indiana, United States. Theater and television actress recognized for her portrayal of Wendy Haverford in NBC’s Parks and Recreation and Nora Tate in Hollywood Heights. She later went on to star as Principal Mullins in the 2016 television revival of hit film School of Rock.
In Parks and Recreation, she portrayed the ex-wife of Aziz Ansari‘s character Tom Haverford.
Williamson was active in New York City theater throughout the early 2000s, during which time she was represented by the Paradigm Talent Agency. In 2000, she appeared in Eat the Runt, a comedy by Avery Crozier about a job applicant’s series of bizarre interviews at an art museum. During this production, by Mefisto Theater Company at Altered Stages, the actors had to be prepared to play every role in the play and, before each show, the audience Drew tickets which determined what actors play which characters. The New York Times reviewer Lawrence Van Gelder said the gimmick was novel, but in the end, “the cast has probably had more sustained fun than the audience”. In the summer of 2001, Williamson again appeared in Eat the Runt at The American Place Theatre, this time without the constant role switching. She played a second applicant trying to get the museum job, who claims the protagonist is actually her scorned love interest who is only pretending to seek the job in order to hurt her chances. In the summer of 2002, she appeared in an Off Broadway production of Hunt Holman’s Spanish Girl at the Second Stage Theatre. The show was about a college student who had a summer fling relationship with a 15-year-old girl, then tries to end it. Williamson played Jolene, the strong-willed college girlfriend of the protagonist, who does not know about his affair. New York Daily News writer Robert Dominguez praised her “strong performance”. Marjorie Gunner of New York Voice called Williamson a scene- stealer, and said she played the role “like the center of gravity”.
Williamson appeared in the 2002 Off Broadway stage musical adaption of the 1978 pornographic film Debbie Does Dallas, which was shown at the Jane Street Theater starting October 2002. She played Roberta, one of Debbie’s attractive young friends who perform sexual services for money. Williamson, along with other female members of the cast, was praised by The New York Times theater critic Bruce Weber as “for lack of a better word, adorable”, and appeared to be “having great fun while they wait for better jobs”. During the show, she performs a sexually-themed duet called “Make That Candle Work for You”, in which Roberta and her boss sing at the candle store where Roberta works. During the song, girls dance with candles shaped like erect penises. The song was sung by Williamson in the Debbie Does Dallas Original Cast Recording soundtrack, which was released on compact disc in 2003. Her singing voice, along with those of the rest of the cast, was praised in a Los Angeles Times review. From October to November 2003, Williamson played the title role in Sylvia, a comedy by A. R. Gurney, at Playhouse on the Green in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The show was about a dog (played by a human) named Sylvia who is adopted by a couple, which creates drama in their relationship. Irene Backalenick of the Connecticut Post said of Williamson’s performance, “Jama Williamson is just not doggy enough, playing it more like a petulant teen- ager. She is really convincing as Sylvia the dog only when she lies down, putting her chin on Greg’s knee.”
She and her husband Carl have two daughters: Adeline Rose and Roma Hazel.
