Actress, writer, friend to spiders. Caught on a bramble near the Hollywood sign.

When you tell people you're an actor and writer, they usually have questions like these:

WHAT HAVE I SEEN YOU IN?
Sam Raimi's 3D blockbuster OZ The Great and Powerful and his pilot for Fox entitled Rake, NBC's Revolution (pic above), executive producer Steven Spielberg's Extant on CBS, True Blood, The Office, Parks and Rec, Grey's Anatomy and more, at IMDb.

Lucky enough to know about the vibrant theater scene in L.A.? Then maybe you've seen me onstage.

CAN I WATCH ANY OF THAT?
Why yes. Yes you can. Below on the right are some videos from work I've done, including the trailer to a short film I recently wrote, produced and starred in entitled Cash for Gold (so far an official selection at the Hollywood Film Festival, Florida Film Festival and Sonoma International Film Festival. Hello, wine country.)


WHAT HAVE YOU WRITTEN??
A number of personal essays, some of which are published on this blog, and some of which you can catch me around town reading aloud for audiences. A short film called Cash for Gold (see above). A television pilot you haven't seen yet.

WHAT ELSE?
I'm a pretty good cook, a really good mom, and an irrepressible fidgeter.

Be my guest and look around as long as you'd like. I promise no pushy sales ladies will bug you.

I'm glad you're here.

on the yellow brick road to Oz

This fall, I'll join the cast of Sam Raimi's upcoming "Oz: The Great and Powerful." Walt Disney Productions is producing this 3D prequel to "The Wizard of Oz," and shooting begins this July. According to IMDb, the film tells how the Wizard (James Franco) arrived in Oz and how he became its leader. Michelle Williams, Rachel Weisz and Mila Kunis also star.

David Lindsay-Abaire ("Rabbit Hole" --I adore both play and movie) is the most recently credited writer on the screenplay.

Raimi is one of my favorite filmmakers ("A Simple Plan" is goosebumpy jumpy excellence), and I can't wait to go to work on this movie somewhere in Michigan this September and October ;-)

    All the best! :-)
