Menopausal Mom Makes a Hot Flash!
Like the brown bear in the spring, I have come out of my (20 year) hibernation/hiatus and am foraging for sustenance/jobs.
Why now? Why come back to acting at the tender age range of "older" - after such a long break?
Maybe it’s the $2.71 residual check I got from “What’s Love Got to Do With It”, or the invitation from SAG to be on the nominating committee, or maybe it is simply my midlife crisis.
I got married, had 2 kids, taught pilates, and had a whole lot of hot flashes. What I realized is that my time “off” wasn't really “off”. I act everyday.
Being a parent is quite possibly the most challenging and rewarding acting part that I have ever played. I have to act like listening to my 13 year old daughter playing the violin doesn’t sound like a cat being tortured while I’m in the throes of a hot flash and just want to stick my head in the freezer.
So here I am, I am back. I'm back in acting class, putting up scenes, I'm on all of these "new fancy
casting sites", I've got representation across the board, and I've already shot 2 pilots, 2 music videos (with Marshmello and 070 Shake no less), a sizzle reel, and shot my first short feature film which I wrote, produced, and starred in.
So, if you are looking for an older, menopausal, Jewish mom of 2 from the valley, look no further.
I’m it, you’ve found me. Let’s do lunch.
