A native of New York, Jean Ann received her B.A. in Film & Creative Writing from Hofstra University.  Since then, she was cast in Richard Maxwell's "Showy Lady Slipper", in which Peter Marks of The New York Times called her performance "comically inspired" and TimeOut NY called the cast a group of "wonderfully adept actors". She was also given the huge opportunity to tour Europe with the show: www.nycplayers.org. When not performing, she continues to develop her craft at HB Studio where she studies with Austin Pendleton as well as Helen Gallagher. Most recently she discovered her love for performing sketch comedy scenes with TAPNYC.  You can see some of those sketches as well as hear some of her music at www.myspace.com/jeananngarrish
