‏Edith Snow‏

Edith Snow (a.k.a. Meredith Sause) is an actor and filmmaker living in North Carolina. She got her first camera when she was eight years old and took so many photos that her mother had to put the kibosh on film purchases. Photo albums were filled at a rapid pace and included short written blurbs, creating pictorial narratives that were disjointed, immature, and starred herself. This habit may have been the auspicious beginning of her path as a filmmaker. Growing up, she never imagined that making movies or directing them was a possibility. She wanted to be an actor. She is and has been an actor for about 30 years now, always knowing that the other side of the camera is just as invigorating.

Serious theatrical study began for Edith as a high school senior at The University of N.C. School of the Arts. She has toured with The National Theater of the Deaf, Cleveland Signstage Theater, and Theater Delta -the company that is dedicated to promoting dialogue and positive social change in communities around the globe. She has also toured a show about Pauli Murray, To Buy the Sun, with the Hidden Voices project -a theatre collective dedicated to creating just, compassionate, and sustainable relationships ultimately providing pathways for global change. In this two-hour production, she portrayed over 30 different characters.

Edith has appeared in co-starring roles on Homeland, TURN: Washington's Spies, and One Tree Hill. Online, she stars in the lesbian-scifi web series "Frequency." She regularly appears in NC Indie films and won Best Actor at The Carrboro Film Festival 2014 for her roles in two short films: Spin and Liyana On Command. Edith is a voice over artist for online, radio, and television spots. While she studied documentary film making at The Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University, she has always been interested in producing narrative fiction work that is rich in dialogue, focusing strongly on character development and providing insight into social constructs. "Keepsake" and "Cheat-Proof" are her first two short narrative films. She is a singer/songwriter in the lounge-noir band, The Drowning Lovers and lives in Chapel Hill, NC with her partner Paul and their three cats.
