Meet actors/writers MaryLynn Suchan (@marylynn_suchan) and Poonam Basu (@iampoonambasu) of the short film MY DEAREST ELIZABETH (@mydearestelizabethshort) which was selected to screen at our Film Festival!!! Poonam Basu (she/her) loves a good hyphen/backslash. She is a bi-coastal (LA/NY) actor/writer/director. Having just returned to LA from shooting a bloody Horror-Comedy in NY, Poonam is now writing a sweet Christmas Rom-Com because… well, balance. Last fall, Poonam was honored with the Best Director award at NJWebFest for My Dearest Elizabeth. She is thrilled to share MDE with new audiences at BraveMaker this summer alongside her dearest bestie, MaryLynn Suchan! A Jersey-girl at heart, MaryLynn Suchan is an actor, writer & producer based in LA by way of NYC. Most recently, MaryLynn served as an Associate Producer on ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy & Station 19. In season 18 of Grey’s Anatomy, MaryLynn played a recurring role as MaryAnn Suchan (your eyes don’t deceive you; it’s basically her real-life name) a member of the Medical Accreditation Council. Created in honor of her grandmother, MaryLynn’s short film, “My Dearest Elizabeth’’ was proud to be screened at BraveMaker where you’ll find her and Poonam Basu consistently overdressed and hamming it up in front of cameras big and small.
