Myha’la Herrold

“Industry” is an HBO drama about a group of young graduates climbing the corporate ladder in London’s hypercompetitive finance world. And if you’ve watched the series at all through its three seasons, then the star of the show is crystal clear: Harper Stern, the ruthless finance prodigy whose deceptive charm, sharp analysis, and amoral ethics always keep her several steps ahead of her competition. Whether it’s insider trading or screwing over her mentor before forcing him to work with her, Harper is willing to do whatever it takes to get where she’s going. The character is memorably portrayed by Herrold, an actress whose other roles have included films like “Bodies Bodies Bodies,” “Leave The World Behind,” and an episode of “Black Mirror.”
