Tell me Universe...
Tell me universe--surely it can be no secret--why is it so difficult to garner auditions for those brainy girl feature film roles? You are aware, no doubt, of the current role to which I refer. I think I fill all the necessary criteria:
I am a girl. I am a professional actress with a variety of experience. I've worked on feature films before. I am a very intelligent person with nerdy tendencies not limited to:
- making astute but not always obvious Star Trek, Star Wars and LOTR references.
- having read the World Book Encyclopedia in hard copy out of interest while growing up.
- attending the International Science and Engineering Fair twice and winning.
- teaching myself LaTeX (with some guidance every now and again).
- participating as a Junior Fellow at the University of Texas at Austin.
- finding joy in dictionaries.
- having socially awkward moments, even today.
Or could it be because I do not fit film and television industry's ethnic stereotype?
