Christy House

Christy Carol House was born in Dallas, Texas. She grew up in the Los Angeles area and attended the University of Southern California where she got to watch Marcus Allen gain 2000 yards in a season for the first time in College Football history behind one of the greatest offensive lines known to the sport. She majored in Drama and minored in Anthropology. She participated there in a program called Thematic Option which allowed her to work with and study with, at that time International Anthropologist of the year, Dr. Barbara Myerhoff. Dr. Myerhoff was famous for having done the first field study of the Huichol Indians of Mexico and had just won an Academy Award for her documentary "Number Our Days" about the old Jewish Community in Venice California. Dr. Myerhoff was instrumental in developing something we now call "Ethnographic" film which was in it's baby stages at that time. After graduating she spent 2 years off and on with a theatre company in the UK called "Festival Theatre USA" where she played leads in musicals and leads in European premieres on the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. And when she came home she took what she thought would be a summer job working in on board services for Amtrak. She spent 28 years off and on traveling with the railroad as well as having a pretty unremarkable acting career doing theatre, commercials, voice overs and some really really bad movies and TV shows. She has also been paid to sing AND do Stand Up comedy which she studied under Judy Carter. She was also privileged to get to study with Sanford Meitner as one of his last 200 Students. She is a practicing Witch and and Initiate of several Traditions of Western Esotericism and if you asked around the "Pagan Community" such as it is they might know who she was. At the same time she doesn't balance her chakras or pray to crystals or talk to your dead relatives. She believes that mostly "New Age" rhymes with Sewage. While she lived in Pasadena California she spends a lot of time traveling, mostly back and forth to Seattle Washington and she owns 4 and a half acres and a family graveyard in Southern Illinois. It is her fervent hope that her career as a performer isn't over yet and she is auditioning and working on her one woman show tentatively titled "I say all this to say" or "It never stopped her before" and hopes to premiere it somewhere in her new home in north central Florida.
