Paula found her love for acting
at the tender age of 8. At a time of grief in her family home, Paula
performed and wrote plays in hopes to entertain and cheer up her
family.

combined with her strong ambition and drive even at this early age
led to many plays and theatrical productions from elementary school
and throughout high school.
Trickey was raised in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where she attended East
Central High School. While in high school she appeared in local
television commercials and began competing in pageants. In 1985 she
was crowned Miss Oklahoma in the All-American Teen Pageant (a Miss
USA production) only to lose in the finals to an unknown Halle
Berry.
Following high school Paula moved to Dallas where she studied acting
and worked in commercials and local film productions such as
"Dallas", and "Dallas the Early Years". Trickey moved to Los Angeles
in 1986. She is divorced, with one daughter.
