Marilise recently played Linda in "Death of A Salesman" (NY Writers Dojo: zoom) and can access visceral emotions with ease. Think Laila Robins, Patricia Clarkson or Laura Dern. Current training: MN Acting Studio on-camera auditions. During a hiatus from acting, she worked to preserve Indigenous cultures and languages with the American Indian Institute (Bozeman, MT), Kanatsiohareke Mohawk Community (Fonda, NY) and the United Nations. She now supports a program returning buffalo to Native American reservations.
