Dawn's Story
Life
:UPDATE:
I recently guest starred on an episode of Cold Case on CBS the episode is called Kensington in case they re-run it and you want to check it out.
I also am in a Mercedes commercial where a man delivers his mail in person instead of taking it to the post office because he loves driving his car so much. He drives by me and I am very impressed with the car.
My then photo is also now. I was blonde in highschool but those that knew me in elementary school know I'm really a red head.
Check out my new short film The Lady Policeman on Channel101.com you can find it under the Failed Pilots section. I wrote, produced and starred in it. There is some strong language at the end so keep that in mind if you're at work.
I moved to Los Angeles in 1989 and went to The American Academy of Dramatic Arts West. A few months after graduation I got my first agent and booked my first speaking part on the soap opera Santa Barbara and then did a Clearasil commercial and joined the Screen Actors Guild. Since then I've appeared on The Young and the Restless, the TV movie Knot's Landing Reunion and I was also in Pleasantville with Toby Maguire and Reese Witherspoon. I played one of Reese's three best friends in the 1950's part in case you happen to rent it. Since then I've done some more commercials a few TV pilots and lots of theater and independent film.
As far as the rest of my life goes I practice a ve...Expand for more
ry intense form of yoga every morning called Ashtanga yoga. I live in an area called Los Feliz which is really nice because you can walk to lots of great shops and restaurants. I also have my own business that supports me when the acting work is slow. I take care of indoor plants in people's homes and offices. It's a good thing for me because it's really flexible and all of my clients are really nice and understand when I have to take off for an audition or acting gig.
Something I'm really having a lot of fun with right now is a monthly film festival/ competition that happens every month in Hollywood. Every month people submit a five minute or less mock TV show and about ten to twelve of them are shown before a live audience. The audience votes on the five shows they want to see again the next month and those shows get to keep coming back and make more episodes until the audience votes them out and cancels them. All the videos are put up on a website called Channel101.com. Most of the videos are really well done even though they are shot really cheaply many times in people's living rooms. The monthly screenings are like a big party and a lot of fun. I'm in a few of shows namely Laser Fart (one episode has an appearance by Jack Black), Twigger's Holiday episodes 2 and 4, and I did some voice over in Computerman starring Jack Black. If you have a high speed connection download some of the videos it's free.
