On November 4, Los Angeles and New York based actor/producer Leanne Melissa Bishop dropped in for an informal chat with students from Acadia’s Theatre programme. Bishop, a Port Williams native who attended Acadia in the 1990s, has created a successful career in American film and television since graduating.

Invited to Wolfville’s internationally renowned Devour Food Film Festival to première her new film Reservations For Three?, Bishop and Producer Michael Mason spoke with insight and humour about the practicalities of pursuing a career in film and television in the United States.
