Elizabeth Tulloch (born January 19, 1981), known professionally as Bitsie Tulloch, is an American actress.
Tulloch was born in San Diego, California, but grew up in Spain, Uruguay, and Argentina. "Bitsie" is not a contraction of Tulloch's given name, Elizabeth, but an homage to her oddly nicknamed grandfather, a World War II bomber pilot. Her father, Andrew Tulloch, works in Latin American banking, which is why she grew up abroad. After returning to the U.S., she went to middle and high school in Bedford, New York. Tulloch graduated magna cum laude from Harvard University with a double major in English and American Literature and Visual and Environmental Studies. Tulloch is of Scottish descent on her father's side and Spanish descent on her mother's.
Tulloch co-starred in the award-winning The Artist with Jean Dujardin, John Goodman and James Cromwell, which was released by The Weinstein Company in November 2011. She was nominated for a Critics Choice Award for Best Ensemble Cast for the movie.
