Bio


Rebecca Jeniece is an intriguing and flirty female who will always keep you guessing.

Rebecca was born and raised in a quiet borough in Western Pennsylvania. As a child, she could always be found mimicking scenes from movies or creating elaborate characters while playing with her dolls. However, it was not until seventh grade that the concept of acting on the stage entered her life. That year, she volunteered to work on the stage crew, building and painting set for "The Music Man." According to Rebecca, it was her first experience of working backstage that gave her a deeper appreciation of the teamwork and the creativity that goes into any production.

Rebecca's love for the stage continued to grow as she changed course from working backstage to appearing on it. Rebecca climbed the status ladder of her Jr./Sr. High School taking 'extra' roles, to one-liners eagerly taking on any role to act in. At the age of fifteen, Rebecca added the high school's Drama Club to her extracurricular activities, to satisfy her desires to grow as an actor. It was also at this age that she earned her first lead role as Snow White in the production, "Snow White."

In the following two years, Rebecca's ambition and devotion to acting surged, earning her four additional leads including Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz" and Aunt Martha in "Arsenic and Old Lace." Her high school productions also taught her stage hand to hand combat and knife handling. In addition, at the age of seventeen, she joined Butler Summer Dramatics Program; a summer division of The Butler Little Theatre in Pennsylvania. By the end of her high school career, Rebecca's acting experiences filled her with confidence in her talents, but ready for more acting opportunities.

Pennsylvania State University accepted Rebecca into their Theatre BA Program, where she specialized in performance, studied the teachings of Stanislavski, and studied classical training. In addition to college student film projects and stage productions, including "The Vagina Monologues" and "Cabaret," Rebecca was also involved in stage crew for several productions. Her love of productions led her to explore avenues such as Spotlight Technician, Make-up Artist, and Special Effects Artist; she did this to further her understanding and admiration for everyone associated with the acting community.

During her college career, Rebecca took the initiative to work with professionals outside of the college atmosphere. With her determination and courage, Rebecca was able to act in horror movies for the independent film studios of Red Glass Films (Nine-1-1, Studio 307 and Shatter) Anthem Film Company (GULA), and Schotten FilmWorks (Silver Cell). While working for these films, Rebecca adapted her talents to scream and cry on demand and learned firearms training. Rebecca also auditioned for the Nittany Valley Shakespeare Festival and earned the role of Hero in the production of "Much Ado About Nothing." In addition, Rebecca was also involved in her first Hollywood film directed by Tony Scott (Unstoppable) by the age of twenty.

Rebecca currently lives in State College, Pennsylvania where she continues to develop her talents and lives by Marilyn Monroe's famous quote, "There must be thousands of girls sitting alone, like me, dreaming of becoming a movie star. But I'm not going to worry about them. I'm dreaming the hardest."
