Thanks so much for visiting my space on MySpace! I'm finally connecting here and on FACEBOOK! Woo-hoo!
ADD me, hit me in COMMENTS or through CONTACT ME below and let me know that you stopped by. I'll do my best to get back to you, but please know that a sister is mad busy these days, so it could take a minute! :)
Being busy is a blessing. I'm not complaining one bit! I've had some wonderful opportunities to work recently on the big and small screens (Paramount's The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Lifetime's Living Proof, BBC America's Wire in the Blood, Who Do You Love aka CHESS, Fox's Prison Break, and Lifetime's Inspector Mom), onstage (Tennessee Williams' classic The Glass Menagerie, which was awesome), and watch out for my one-woman play Shattered Silhouettes coming to a city near you! It's so great meeting you all as we travel. I pray God's best for each of you.

Curious Case: Walking in the Strappy Sandals of Others
Hi Fam, I’m so excited to be in this film "Curious Case..." I hear it’s wonderful. I was unable to attend the premiere because of my one-woman play performance, but I’m told that my “one scene” made it in. LOL! That’s right! My couple of lines didn’t hit the cutting room floor (a major feat considering how much was sliced to reduce the time :) And believe me, the four auditions & several characters I went through to book my role was well worth the experience! Working with Fincher: Priceless!... READ MORE athttp://naimalett.com/blog
