Jorjeana Marie

"Powerhouse" -Paste Magazine "Pitch Perfect" * Publishers Weekly "Hilarious" -AudioFile Magazine Writer and actress Jorjeana Marie is a comedic dynamo. Whether creating the fantastically funny as a television writer at Disney (Mickey & the Roadster Racers and Mickey Mouse - Mixed Up Adventures) and Cartoon Network's Gummy & Friends or as an accomplished actress opposite Randall Parks in "Listen to Grandpa, Andy Ling" with Elliott Gould, she fearlessly brings the hilarity and sincerity. Uniquely, she combined her talents and created a voice for a character she wrote for Disney- who knew a country girl would get so fancy?! As a nationally touring comedian she has opened for Richard Lewis, Kathleen Madigan and Louis Anderson at The Improv Comedy Clubs and Catch a Rising Stars all over the US. If you like listening to your lit, you may have laughed and/or cried over her compelling characters in over 300 audiobooks which she has won a variety of awards for including the prestigious Audie Award, over a dozen Earphones Awards and been named one of the best Young Adult Voices for several consecutive years. The voice of the New Nancy Drew Diaries (Jorjeana Marie captures the essence of what makes Nancy Drew such a timeless fictional icon" - AudioFile) can also be heard in the biggest franchise videogames: Final Fantasy, Red Dead Redemption, Star Trek and a lead in an untitled Steven Speilberg project. Based on her improv adventures, Jorjeana is the author of Improv for Writers (Penguin Random House/Ten Speed Press) and, in shocking news, recorded her own audiobook! AudioFile calls her 'the warm supportive guide every writer needs. A cheerleader..." She runs the boutique content creation company Autumn Leaf Productions with Phillip Mosness. They produced the award-winning "Doorknobs" and have several pilots in development. As a playwright, Jorjeana has been produced at the Neighborhood Playhouse, 78th St. Rep and P.S. 122. She also created three one-woman shows: "Ally, MaryJane & Me", "NY, I Love" and "JoJo and Friends" - a sold-out solo sketch show with animation, puppets and stand-up. With an endorsement from Daisy Rock Guitars Jorjeana plays 'micro-songs' and has performed at The Boston Comedy Festival, NY Fringe Festival and for the US Armed Forces. While she shares her passion for improv, teaching, and speaking at Disney, Google, and Writer's Digest, she is often involved in many charitable organizations: Gilda's Club, Comedy Cures, Paul Newman's Double H hole in the Wall, Scriptwriter's Network, and Young Storytellers. Jorjeana married a fellow human cartoon and they live above the beanstalks with the best cat in the world.
