Anastasia Blackwell was born in a small coastal town in Oregon. She discovered acting at a young age and performed throughout her childhood in Portland. She received a B.S. from U of O and studied for an M.A. in Theater Arts at PSU.
Soon after graduation, a San Francisco CBS affiliate recruited her to work as an associate producer, where she helped create award-winning commercials. During her years in SF, she performed in theater, commercials, and voice-overs. And received prestigious acting commendations for her stage work, including Dean Goodman awards for outstanding contribution to theater as best actress and best supporting actress.
She is the author of four published novels adapted to award-winning teleplays, screenplays, and podcasts. Contemporary gothic thriller, "The House on Black Lake", medieval fantasy, "The Chamber of Curiosities'', urban fantasy, "I Am Human", and historical coming-of-age, "Outlaw Night".
Anastasia spent many years learning the art of the flying trapeze. Her training in the circus arts, along with writing, directing, acting, and voice-over expertise, was used to produce original trailers and music videos incorporating aerial acts.
Film offers brought Anastasia to LA, where she performed in film and television projects that garnered awards in film festivals and artistic recognition. Her projects involve creating and promoting influential female roles, and working with collaborative storytellers invested in breaking creative boundaries.
During the pandemic, she relocated to Santa Fe, New Mexico, where she worked with the Santa Fe International Shakespeare Festival and performed her first non-traditional role as the rogue bandit Black Will in "Arden of Faversham".
Anastasia is passionate about story-telling and is in the process of developing new works, with plans to return to Santa Fe to film a female-driven apocalyptic Western.
