Jennifer Weaver (Actor/Producer) is able to turn her native Northern Jersey accent on and off. Among her acting favorites are "Lady Macbeth," and "Rosanna," the hot-headed Italian in No More Sundays. Having studied in New York, London, and Los Angeles, she has had the opportunity to learn from the best including her amazing current teacher, Stephanie Nash (Yale Drama MFA). Some TV and film credits include the "Maid of Honor" on Fuel TV's Stupidface and "Elma" in National Lampoon's Brokeback Bowling Alley. She will get a chance to prove her "scream-queenness" since a horror feature is on the horizon. She helped white pants come back to life in the Shout Rescue Mission commercial and was behind bars due to being stuck in the kitchen for King Soopers. She co-produced an Original Works Showcase and is a founder of Off-Chance Productions where she co-produced the original play Anatomy of a Slap. She is a proud, active member of Theatre of NOTE in Hollywood.  www.jenniferleeweaver.com
