Danielle Rizzo

Danielle Rizzo, an Atlanta native, found her way to the stage at age three, literally climbing on top of it during intermission. By five she began performing in community theater, appeared in all the standard musical productions for children and more. On weekends, Danielle sang and danced in the Pam & Buffy show at American Adventure Theme Park, appeared on local TV children's programming, and sang in the church choir under the leadership of Mary Hoffman, Director of Music Ministries at Peachtree Presbyterian. A contributing choir voice, she can be heard on two professional Christian CDs. As an accomplished IPA voice student, she has mastered challenging scores in over a dozen languages from operatic to contemporary.In high school, Danielle's presence in class kept teachers off-balance with her sense of humor, quick wit, and engaging conversations. In her senior year, this commended National Merit Scholar decided to shift focus from theater to film/TV.Upon agent representation, Danielle's first audition lead to a small supporting role in a Project Almanac - Paramount Pictures (2015), followed by a lead role in an independent production, Grace of the Gods (2014), and other varied productions. Danielle is extremely well liked, appreciated by directors for being well prepared, taking direction and chances in developing varied characters and by fellow actors for her flexibility to accommodate their acting style and preferences. When Danielle is not filming or in classes, her employment keeps gas in the Prius and volunteer work contributes to her community. She is an avid reader of classical and contemporary literature, enjoys hiking and nature's beauty, connecting with friends and family, and singing Disney classics. An engaging and comedic storyteller, Danielle enjoys enriching the lives of others. Show less «
