Eve Curtis

Eve Curtis, born and also known as, Lisa Eve McKim, is originally from Marion, Ohio. From her earliest years, she was known to family and friends as a natural performer and leader. Her eighth grade teacher wrote in an autograph book that she expected to see "(Lisa's) name in lights, or as the first female President". At the age of 12, her family moved to Long Beach, California, where her father started a successful real estate career. She attended Woodrow Wilson High School and later Platt College, studying production art. She worked briefly in the advertising industry in her early 20's, but gravitated strongly to her true love of acting. She studied with Lynette Katselas at the Beverly Hills Playhouse, where her classmates included Brandon Lee, Jason Gould, Faith Ford and Jane Leeves. In her 20's and 30's, Eve worked extensively in Los Angeles theatre as an actor, producer and writer, with companies such as Theatre Rapport, West Coast Ensemble, Tabula Rasa, LATC, Women Artists Group, The Attic Theatre, Beneath Broadway and Write Act Repertory. After a stint away from show business in her late 30's, during which time she developed other business ventures and creative projects, Eve returned full force, concentrating on film and television. During this time, she was fortunate to study with and be mentored by the late Susan Peretz, Actors Studio board member and founder of the Third Street Theatre. Eve subsequently worked on numerous student films, independent features and shorts, including Weapon of Mass Destruction (2004) and Little Losers (2004). She was also featured regularly as a reporter on _General Hospital (1963 TV series)_. Obtaining her SAG card in 2007, Eve worked as a stand-in and background performer, with one of her first jobs being a regular member of the original Sterling Cooper secretarial pool on Mad Men (2007). Working the first 3 seasons, she relished the opportunity to be surrounded by such tremendous talent and to learn and grow on set each day. Shortly thereafter, she obtained her first principal role in a major motion picture, cast as Jogger #2 in He's Just Not That Into You (2009). Most recently, she worked with director 'Joe Di Gennaro' on the film Social Studies and with Nate Golon on the web series Generation U. Represented by her longtime agent, Gail Marx, Eve is actively auditioning and looking forward to her next role. She is a proud member of the prestigious Edgemar Theatre Group, founded by Larry Moss and Michelle Danner. She is also a licensed California Realtor, specializing in architectural and resort properties. Show less «
