Actress instead of Actor

  • February 25, 2014, 7:42pm

I am an actress, and on my resumes, bios, etc., I refer to myself that way. For my female colleagues who want to refer to themselves as actors, I have no problem with that. I, however, like the fact that ladies and gentlemen are inherently different, and for me, vive la difference. And yes, I said "lady", not just woman.
