SOUTH BEND, Ind.—Hollywood actress, producer, and South Bend native Lisa Varga is returning to her hometown of South Bend to partner with TJ21 Media Group to form a production company, Lisa Varga Entertainment.

Varga has over 25 years of experience in the entertainment industry and will serve as the company’s new Creative Director and part owner.

The John Adams High School graduate returned home to help her brother when he was diagnosed with cancer.

“After returning home to help him defeat his illness twice, I knew my family had to come first and decided that instead of returning to California, I would bring Hollywood here to my hometown,” Varga said.

She will also offer acting classes, seminar weekend workshops, casting opportunities, private coaching, and training for public speaking.

Varga is most known for her acting roles in “Homeland,” “Game Time,” and “Marley and Me.”
