Mavis Martin is a fierce actress known for her ability to simultaneously display her characters' vulnerability and strength. From a blustering female King Lear to a desolate maid or a sultry jazz singer, her dynamic talent soars as she explores "how humans respond to life".
An honors graduate of New York University's Tisch School of Art, she studied theatre and religious studies.
She can be seen in Aleta Chappelle's Romeo & Juliet in Harlem, Respect The Jux and Romina Scwhedler's The Visit. She owns and operates Rose Films, a production company dedicated to exploring the female experience and developing faith based narratives.
