I have always loved theater. For 3 reasons; one of my most favorite sounds in the world is applause, my Mother's ambitions to be an Actress and instilling a love of all things acting in me, and because it beats the Hell out of working an office job. A Dartmouth College musical theater production, with all of its color and music was my first glimpse of that world. The cast looked so happy, the overwhelming joy I felt watching their performance. I knew I needed to be a part of it. As luck would have it, the Woodstock Vermont community had a small children's theater group and that was my true gateway drug into the glory of acting that very same year. I was hooked. Many years, and many high school, college, summer stock, community theater productions, and one dinner theater job as a singing waitress; I moved back to New York City (my Mom's home town "Hi Mom!). Long story short, and because I'm honestly awful at writing about myself unless it's updating my acting resume; coming to NYC has provided me with a wealth of opportunities to work on many stage, film, and televsion roles. I've even landed a commercial or three, not to mention a industrial (where I met my husband, Steve, who was part of the production team). I am one of those lucky few who love what they do, and cannot see a life without the arts as part of it. If you'd like to see my website I invite you to visit www.StephVanVlack.com
