Ever since I was a little girl I stayed up past my bedtime with my Dad, to watch films like; Double Indemnity, Sunset Boulevard, Jezebel or any Bette Davis movie...she was my dad's favorite. I was mesmerized with that world While most children watched the after school special I was racing home to see Splendor in the Grass for Natalie Wood week. I laughed with Lucille Ball, I imitated Carol Burnett and when I was 13 I saw my first Broadway Show, A Chorus Line. All I wanted to do was run up on the stage and I knew that being an actor was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. From that point, I did become involved with theatre and classes. Life sidetracked me for a while but eventually I moved into Manhattan and went to the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. For years I studied and worked and followed my dream. I met my husband while pursuing that dream and he too, is an actor. After having our daughter, I thought it best to take a break while she was attending school. She was my only child and I felt very strongly about being present and available to her during those years. Now 10 years later, I am more then ready and I feel the stage/screen beckoning my name once again. We have a wonderful life filled with treasured memories of family, friends and travel. I love being a wife and a mother but I feel that when I'm being true to myself, that's when I'm offering my best self to the people I love.
