True O’Brien is an American model and actress.

The surname “O’Brien” is of Irish origin.

True is a first cousin of actress and singer Hailee Steinfeld.

True’s maternal grandfather, Ricardo/Simonas Guillermo Domasin, was born in Los Angeles, in 1938. Ricardo’s father, Pastor “Peter” Lorisca Domasin, was born, c. 1902, in Panglao, Bohol, in the Philippines (Pastor’s mother’s maiden name was Lorisca). Ricardo’s mother, Evelyn Olivia Bain, was born in Los Angeles, in 1910; Evelyn was True’s great-grandmother. Evelyn was African-American, and she and her parents, Thomas Edward Bain (born in Kansas, to Gabrel Bain and Belle Johnson) and Wilma “Willie” Frances Peterson (born in Arkansas, to William F. Peterson and Nannie Hall), are listed as either African-American or, sometimes, as “Mulatto”, in census records.

True’s maternal grandmother was Laurita Lee Hinkle (the daughter of William Hicks Hinkle and Edith Laurita Jones). Laurita was born in Texas, and had English, German, Scots-Irish (Northern Irish), and Scottish, ancestry. William was the son of Joshua Madison Hinkle and Ella Malona Payne. Edith was the daughter of Charles Kirby Jones and Ethel Effie Smith.

True’s matrilineal ancestry can be traced back to her fourth great-grandmother, Penelope “Phenina” Watson.
