Stuntwomen's Association of Motion Pictures

Professional Stuntwoman for Hire.

When a production needs someone who can handle an 18-wheeler, rig a water safety sequence, or stand vertical on a motorcycle — they call Denise Gallo. She’s built a long career on trust, readiness, and hard-earned technical skill.

A member of the Stuntwomen’s Association of Motion Pictures, Denise is Florida-based and fully passport-ready, often bouncing between high-speed chase setups and ground-level utility work. Her training includes CPR, rescue diving, and motion picture driving training, reaching Super Level 1 & 2 under legend Rick Seaman — and that shows in her credits. 

She drove through chaos in 2 Fast 2 Furious, handled ND driving in War Dogs and Sex Drive, and played both dirty cop and target in Hard Luck, where she was taken out by Wesley Snipes. She also stepped into post-apocalyptic tension on Terminator Salvation, doubling Jane Alexander under stunt coordinator Tom Struthers.

Denise has also doubled actresses Casey Wilson, Katee Sackhoff, and Emily Deschanel on shows including Happy Endings, Bones, and Transparent. Whether she’s driving, falling, or coordinating background movement, she brings a pro’s timing and flexibility.

Her work on Miami Vice and All About the Benjamins tied her to iconic Florida-based action sets — where the stunt team often had to work fast, light, and always be ready for changing weather conditions. She’s also spent time in the water — literally. Denise handled water safety on films like From Justin to Kelly and “Players Only”, bringing dive certifications and calm to chaotic shoot days.

Over the years, her toolkit has only grown: 18-wheeler licenses, tactical weapons training, SCUBA, and motorcycle work. In Bones, she drove trucks. In Burn Notice, she played a stunt cop and jumped into multiple episodes. In Nip/Tuck, she doubled both Roma Maffia and Katee Sackhoff — as her skill had production call her back to help two different actresses look good.

What keeps Denise working isn’t just flash. It’s her steadiness. Her Calm. Her Technique. The ability to do the job take after take.
