"...the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes awww...’"

音樂
Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and cannot remain silent.
關於我: Born and raised in West Harlem, educated in the Lower East Side and Upstate New York, Tracy has come full circle to follow her creative ambitions. After a brief spell in the music industry, she decided to pursue acting with the goal to push beyond the boundaries of how women of color are perceived in theater and film, to approach roles varying in depth and range. She has worked in notable venues such as Ensemble Studio Theater, Center Stage, Repertorio Español, HERE, Nuyorican Poets Cafe (Miguel Pinero's Sideshow as Sugar) and worked with companies such as Cornerstone Theater Company and Project 400. Her versatility has driven her to work on the British play, Gut Girls, produced by the Flying Fig Theater Company at The Chocolate Factory. She worked on the timely play, De Donde and several one-acts by J. Anthony Roman at the Rebel Verses Theater Festival at Center Stage. With aspirations to also direct, she has worked as an assistant director Looking Glass Theater’s Spring Forum, which then led her to make her directorial debut the following year in the East Village’s Red Room Theatre with an original play, Checkmate.
Film is an equal, if not significant passion, having worked on several shorts, including St. Paul [Kulture Machine Productions], which won Best Short at the NY International Latino Film Festival and the Audience Award at the Columbia Student Film Festival in 2005. She was among the leads in the award-winning short, Collision. Tracy played the lead, Lily Daisy Rose Rodriguez, in the indie TV pilot, The Desire Project, [Good Stories For Bad Children Productions] where an art star turned documentary-maker chronicles the life and times of Williamsburg artists. Novelist Jardine Libaire, author of Here Kitty Kitty, penned the script. Tracy has worked on English & Spanish radio commercials and is seeking ways to get back into the booth!
As a producer, she successfully completed Hero the Great, where it won Best Latin Short at the Hollyshorts Film Festival in Hollywood, CA this summer. Another summer pursuit, NO MATINEES, an evening of theater authored by J. Anthony Roman, worked her actor/producer muscles where she showcased the rising stars of the theater scene.
Tracy is writing her short, Breathe Easy, where she intends to act and direct en el verano in NYC. Thanks for visiting!
我想認識: "The only dream worth having is to dream that you will live while you are alive, and die only when you are dead. To love, to be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity of the life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget." - Arundhati Roy
"In times of change, learners inherit the Earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists." Eric Hoffer
Hi Tracy..... a segment of our film, Touched by Duse will be screening at this event on Sunday. I will also be addressing the audience about the work. We were able to have the participation of Ellen Burstyn, Paul Sorvino, Austin Pendleton, Susan Batson and Black Nexxus, and we aren't even done the film yet. So far got a good 37 minutes... Never heard from you so I hope you got a good DP.
