Will be in Wilmington starting 6/28-7/9. also available at any other times. Middle-aged caucasian female. Have done theater and extra in other Screen Gems program (Dawson’s Creek).
I have worked sporadicaly as an extra over 50 years starting with Jack Lemon and Doris Day. I was quite yuong and perhaps didn’t notice or appreciate the surroundings. This is the second time I worked for Vanessa N. Casting. It is always a treat working with her. Presently on Safe Haven there is a gentleman named Terry, I think he is a big boss of sorts. Well, he is perhaps the nicest boss I have ever worked under. Seems to truly care about the “little” people. Over my man y years I have become a little, um, lets say feeble? Terry always a gentleman offerd me every consideration and even offered to get me a drink one day as I arrived on a shoot. This is a genuine top shelf orginazation. My hat is off to Terry, Vanessa, Ashley and all the many others!
