Chrissy Hogue Bartels

I spend my day directing and casting actors and I believe you will benefit tremendously from having me as your reader. I do it because I love it. I work in every single aspect of this industry.

I am an Adjunct Professor of Theatre at the University of Dubuque, completing my M.F.A. in Film and Television with a concentration in Script and Screenwriting at Regent University, and I received my B.A. in Theatre at Franklin Pierce University.

I'm an award-winning actress, producer, director, filmmaker, writer, casting director, a co-founder of the Julien Dubuque International Film Festival, and Executive Director of Aftershocks Theatre Company.

I help actors make a living acting anywhere and I have a book showing people how to do just that "Make a Living Acting Anywhere: Ultimate Guide. " Let me know if you want a free copy and I will email you a PDF version with the fillable workbook. Because I love it.

I am currently producing and acting in my film "The Stupider Economy" written for me by Robert Lynn in which I play all seven of the characters. Find out more at www.thestupidereconomy.com
