  "description": "Marisa Sullivan, a Chicago native, moved out to LA after studying in \n\nFrance and attending University of Iowa, where she studied French and \n\nTheatre.  She knew she wanted to be an actress for as long as she can \n\nremember and had won many lead roles in plays growing up.  At the age of\n\n 19, she auditioned for MTV's \"Wanna Be a VJ, too?\" contest with \n\nthousands of other hopefuls. She was selected as 1 of 12 finalists out \n\nof 8,000 across the country and appeared on TRL, garnering some \n\nnationwide publicity.  Thinking those were pretty good odds to move \n\nfurther, she continued her studies in LA,  at the Joanne Baron/D.W. \n\nBrown Studio with Elaine Williams, studying Meisner.  Marisa has worked \n\non a few independent films, commercials, music videos thus far and has \n\nmade some television appearances on networks such as NBC, Fox News \n\nChannel, E!, MTV and Spike TV. Marisa has been active around the LA \n\ntheatre scene, portraying Ginger from 'Casino' in the play 'Wiseguys' \n\nand performing a lead role in 'Dark Side of the Moon', a visual \n\nperformance piece to Pink Floyd's album of the same name that got rave \n\nreviews in the LA Times.  She has also recently appeared in Ray Romano's\n\n new sitcom, 'Men of a Certain Age'.  She is currently freelancing for \n\nIn Touch Weekly magazine and for Image Locations, recently managing such\n\n shoots such as Vogue with Rachel McAdams and Dior with Sharon Stone.  She hopes to go further into the production world and has a show in the \n\nworks that she will be starring in!  Ultimately she wants to be acting \n\nand producing.  Keep your eyes peeled for this larger than life \n\npersonality!",
