Jaclyn S. Powell

Profane, profound and edited only for punctuation and grammar, Jaclyn was raised in Joliet, IL. Since leaving home at 18, Jaclyn has lead an exciting life with more twists and turns than a Hitchcock movie.On her way to Hollywood to take her shot at movies, Jaclyn was held hostage in Las Vegas during those years when the Mob was losing its grip and Howard Hughes was stepping in to take their place.She escaped that life as an English Major at UNLV, then moved on to be a ski instructor at the prestigious Deer Valley Ski Resort, instructor to the rich and famous. Mostly rich.Jaclyn had a lull in her drive to the top when she took a position in the Caribbean. Once again, relying on her skills of writing and performing, Jaclyn escaped the islands and has resumed her writing and performing career in NYC.As one of the last graduating classes from the New York Film Academy Union Square Campus, Jaclyn already has one script going out, is working on two shorts and has several auditions scheduled for her hobby in stand-up comedy.
