Barbara's Story
Life
Hello!
I'm living and working in the Detroit area. 1 kid, 2nd (wonderful)husband, 4 dogs, 2 cats (if you knew me, that's hardly a surprise). Why do I live here? Long story... too long for here. What I DO here is work as an actress. Yep. We've got jobs here in the rustbelt for professional actors (believe it or not). My husband is an actor as well. The kid? 21 going on 37. Great kid but the teen years were TOUGH! (why should that surprise me- I hated my teens). She attends Eastern Michigan University where she is a junior. She's studying theatre... sigh... oh well, the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree.
I feel fairly isolated here, though. So communiques through the internet are a lifeline. Feel free to say "Hi!" :-)
Also, I'm much more active...Expand for more
on FaceBook. Barb Christine. Look for me there.
Workplace
I am a free lance actor so I work wherever hired. So, while this particular software required for me to list an "employer" I don't really have one, per se. So far in the last few years I have worked for MeadowBrook Theatre, The Gem Theatre, Jewish Ensemble theatre, Performance Network, Detroit Rep, The Purple Rose Theatre (founded by Jeff Daniels - what a wonderful place to work!!) Toyota, Chrysler, The Michigan Lottery, Bissell, Farmer Jack, MSU School of Nursing, and most recently did a day shoot on a new film directed by Drew Barrymore and a made for TV movie starring Rosie O'Donnell. I am so grateful to be doing what I love, and actually making a living at it.
I wish the same to you all!
