Annalee Richards did that scary thing that every one talks about but few take the leap. She decided if she was going to be an actor, she was going to move to Los Angeles with the few connections she had and some savings to make it happen. Through a series of odd-jobs while finding the time to drive across town for audition after audition, she's started to see the fruits of her labors take shape.
After four years in LA, she's managed to get film and theatrical representation as well as gathered a strong reel of performances she can proudly show to future casting directors. Not only has she achieved career growth, but we talked extensively about her personal growth. She explained her breakthroughs in therapy and how meditation has made her a stronger and more present actor, digging deeper into her authentic self and pouring those qualities into her roles.
We talked in late October 2020. She's now wrapping up the Netflix sponsored Stranger Things immersive theater experience, and I got the chance to talk with her after her opening night.
