Biography
In 2003, Lynne arrived in New York City ready for Broadway: with black & white headshots, upwards of 2 audition songs, a repertoire of male and/or elderly roles, the face of a cherubic toddler, and the voice of a brassy retiree.
Naturally, she turned to comedy.
Though her time at Vassar College may not have prepared her for The Business Of The Business, it had given her formal training in classical theater, extensive opportunities in improv, and a nerdy penchant for interdisciplinary thought, breadth of study, and socio-linguistics.
While managing her growing fury toward the offensive language of casting, Lynne worked on varied and exciting pursuits, including unscripted serials, large scale immersive theater, and dating robots.
Her proudest achievement to date has been her work changing representation and inclusion in film, TV, and theater, through close examination of casting practices. Famous Cast Words, her interview show that explores this problematic content, has found a home at All Arts, powered by New York Public Media. She hopes the show might offer catharsis for those in the industry, and awareness for those outside of it.
When not on stage, in front of a camera, or procrastinating from writing, she can usually be found volunteering at The 52nd Street Project.
