Barbara Linhares Ferreira was born in Queens, New York, on December 14, 1996, and later resided in Maywood, New Jersey, attending Hackensack High School. She was raised by her Brazilian mother and grandmother, with her mother working as a chef. Ferreira initiated her modeling career by submitting photos to American Apparel, where she subsequently modeled and worked in a retail store. Her early modeling work included campaigns for brands such as Aerie, Adidas, Asos, Forever 21, H&M, Missguided, and Target. In 2016, unretouched photos and a video interview from her Aerie campaign gained widespread attention. That same year, Time magazine recognized her among their “30 Most Influential Teens.”
Ferreira expanded into acting, starring in the 10-episode Vice series “How to Behave,” which focused on topics like sex, money, and body image. This role earned her a Webby Award for “Best Web Personality/Host.” She also featured in Teen Vogue’s web series “Body Party,” where she discussed body positivity. Her acting credits include playing Ella in two episodes of HBO’s “Divorce” and a main role as Kat Hernandez in HBO’s series “Euphoria” from 2019 to 2022. Ferreira made her film debut in “Unpregnant” (2020) and appeared in Jordan Peele’s “Nope” (2022). More recently, she has taken on roles in “House of Spoils” (2024), “Bob Trevino Likes It” (2024), and “Mile End Kicks” (2025), also serving as an executive producer for the latter two projects. Her modeling career continued with an appearance on the Victoria’s Secret runway in 2025.
Throughout her career, Ferreira has consistently advocated for body positivity and inclusivity within the fashion industry. Her work with major brands and her television and film appearances have contributed to her public profile. She has also taken on directing work, having directed the music video “So Cool” for Dounia in 2018. Her career trajectory reflects a progression from modeling to acting and production, with an emphasis on projects that resonate with her personal values.
