5. TANIS PARENTEAU - Actor and Producer

On today’s episode, I speak with actor and producer Tanis Parenteau who does a little of everything in the acting world: from theater to film to audiobooks and podcasts. We discuss how she found her way to a Drama 101 class, how her training helped her sustain a lead role in a long-running play, and why Billions was her favorite tv show to film to date. Tanis is a member of the Métis Nation of Alberta, Canada and we also talk about why representation is important in all aspects of media.
