After four seasons spent playing our beloved Betty Suarez, America lent her voice to the highly-successful How to Train Your Dragon film and TV franchise, appeared in the films Our Family Wedding, End of Watch, Cesar Chavez and Special Correspondents, had a recurring role on The Good Wife, and, since 2015, has starred on NBC's Superstore. In 2020, she announced that the currently-airing fifth season would be her last. She's gotten involved behind the camera, as well, producing and directing episodes of Superstore while executive producing and directing the Netflix series Gentefied. Two months after Ugly Betty ended, America got engaged to Ryan Piers Williams, whom she married on June 27, 2011. In 2018, they welcomed their first child, Sebastian Piers Williams. In January 2020, they announced they were expecting their second child. Known for her political activism, America was both the opening speaker for the Women's March on Washington in January 2017 and served as a founding member of the Time's Up legal defense fund a year later.
