Jennifer loves acting. Her first role was a chicken in a show she can't remember the name of.
She's come a long way seeing as she now has her MFA in Acting.
She adores seltzer, the color red, and her dog Walter. Dogs, generally, though. When she sees one, her voice usually goes up two octaves & tears of joy tend to follow.
Jennifer loves to travel and is always seeking the next adventure, which is apropos for what she recently spent time doing (until a global panorama).
Jennifer was rollerskating (and yelling in Hebrew nightly) all across the country originating the role of Anna in the first national tour of The Band's Visit.
During in this shutdown, she co-founded the Empowered Artist Collective, a community for women & non-binary artists seeking a sustainable career in the performing arts.

I'm Mary McDonald-Lewis.
When I go to work, it's fun to guess what I'll be doing that day.
Probably a voice-over job -- I've been a voice actor for years. Maybe as affiliate voice: I've been heard on stations from coast-to-coast. Certainly a dialect coach... I'm always working in film and on stage somewhere. Or directing! There's nothing I'd rather do than make storytelling magic.
