‏Merritt C. Glover‏

Born in Roswell, New Mexico; Merritt's first encounter with performing, aside from the plays and stories she performed on her own for family, was at the age of seven. A movie called 'Silent Tongue,' by Sam Shepard, came to Roswell to film in the desert surrounding her home town. As a request of her mother's first time position as the on set tutor, Merritt auditioned for Sam Shepard as a featured, recurring, background player. "I wanted to give Merritt an outlet for her strong tendencies toward performance that she showed since, well, pretty much birth," chuckles her mom. "I knew this was a once in a lifetime opportunity for her, especially in a small town like Roswell." From this experience, Glover learned that her talent in performance could become the pursuit of a lifetime, and her career. Merritt begged her parents to travel to L.A. soon after 'Silent Tongue' wrapped, but they both agreed that she needed to have a childhood, and a real life first. From that moment forward, Merritt took part in anything that had to do with acting. She vigorously sought out classes, community theatre, high school theatre, independent films, and eventually a college degree in Performing Arts. After graduating college as magna cum laude, Merritt went to Portland, Oregon to try on a different market in acting. With many successes in community and professional theatre (including one of her favorite roles, The Wicked Witch of the West), Merritt spent three years away from her home state. When asked what brought her back to New Mexico, Merritt states with a grin: "The pilot of 'Breaking Bad'....I was watching it in Portland and going, what the hell are you doing Merritt?! This is HUGE and it's going on right in your backyard! I knew I had to make it back to New Mexico to try and become a part of this incredible show in some way. They were revolutionizing television, and I had just moved away." Shortly after seeing the pilot, Glover moved back to Albuquerque, New Mexico to start her pursuit of a film career in addition to her theatrical career. Two years later, Merritt booked her first SAG speaking role on the popular series: 'In Plain Sight,' as Sheila. Soon to follow was another role on the well received show: 'Longmire' as the Receptionist. Then, after around twenty auditions for 'Breaking Bad,' as well as a two year stint as Skylar's (Anna Gunn's) stand-in, Merritt got the call: she had finally booked a role on the series that brought her back to New Mexico. Following this huge dream come true on 'Breaking Bad,' Merritt can be seen in the critically acclaimed series 'Manhattan,' as the Wind Chime Woman, along with the film: 'The Condemned 2' as the Deputy. Independent credits include Verna, in the feature length horror 'Rotgut,' Camille in the feature length romantic comedy 'Missing You,' and the Clerk in the upcoming comedy short: 'Death By Crickets.' With over 34 theatrical credits, and 18+ film and television credits under her belt, Merritt will keep going.
