Joanne O'Kennedy: Actor in Boston, Massachusetts.

Responding many years too late Luis R. Quintero but I'd choose Nia Vardalos. She's the reason I wrote my first screenplay and I'd love to star in my own uplifting comedies as she has as well!

Some of my favourite comedians started in Vaudeville or radio. I relate to Jack Benny because our personalities are similar and our comedy style are very much alike and he has a certain sarcasm that I also have.

I know it's probably cliche, but I'd have to say Spielberg. The guy has been my top film and storytelling influence literally since I was a kid.

Hi Joanne, Nice to meet you! Always great to meet nearby filmmakers. I will definitely keep you in mind for any roles for sure! Cheers! John

Hello Joanne! Pleasure to make your acquaintance. Thank you for the connection. Have a great day! Cheers, Shawn Schaffer www.shawnschaffer.com www.facebook.com/shawnschafferdop www.imdb.com/name/nm2089834/

Mark Wahlberg's doing a film on the Boston Marathon terrorist attack. I know an actress/marathoner who was affected by the attack and recently auditioned for a role in it. I'm not sure how I feel about making money on such a horrific event but do think it's important to keep it in the forefront of people's minds. I'd like to know what Stage 32ers feel about this issue.

I don't know if you know Lynn Julian personally but we did two Boston 48 Hour Films together.

Hey Scott: Thanks for the warm compliments! I'm still trying to get a network deal for the show, although it's in the hands of my distribution partners and I trust them completely. Yes, Hollywood needs to change, and create more spiritually uplifting content, or Hollywood will become obsolete!

Amen brother. And it's up to us as creators and consumers of the content that we REALLY want now, and yes, we are in MAJOR need of content that has substance, depth, heart, and humanity, and not what the machine has been spitting out for dollars and ratings only, still important in the world, but it's time for humanity and the human heart to be front and center now.

Simply beautiful, Giacomo. Much success to you!

PLEASE LOOK AT ALL MY LINKS FOR INFORMATION JOANNE.

I looked! Wow! We both play the 45-70 bracket, I have a firearms permit (recently said to my husband that I'd love to be a private investigator), I model (mostly local fund-raising events now but acting grew out of a paid print ad I did in Boston). You have an amazing amount of experience! When did you start acting, are a you SAG member, his did you learn all the accents? Congratulations on all your accomplishments. Glad we're connected.

YOU ARE VERY WELCOME JOANNE AND THANK YOU..... I HAVE BEEN A SAG/AFTRA AND AGVA MEMBER SINCE 1968. I SERVED ON BOTH THE WOMEN'S AND SENIOR'S COMMITTEES OF THE AFTRA LOCAL, ALTHOUGH I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING SINCE THE MERGER. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATIONS.

And when sleep isn't an option, I highly recommend Eclos under-eye treatment. It's all natural and reasonably priced. I use their entire skincare line. Haven't had to even contemplate botox yet. :)

which stores carry the Eclos line?

Best prices are online. Amazon.com carries Eclos, as well as Freemanbeauty.com
