Anita Cordell

If you had told this shy girl at the age of 10 that she would become an actress, she would have probably given you a small smile and finished quietly playing with her favorite Barbie, her Farrah Fawcett doll. Born in Tulsa, OK and raised in multiple Midwest locations, Anita Cordell is a one of a kind lady and a true example of a Midwest Charm. With only the connection to a Barbie doll, and her music performances as a child, her acting endeavors didn't truly begin until she was asked to be an angel in a 200 cast member play called Tribulation Christmas in the mid-90's. This small beginning spurred a desire in her and for the next decade, Anita pursued stage work, becoming a valuable actress in many plays, including a strong role in a traveling drama team. In 2006, she began pursuing film and commercial work and has gained the recognition of many Indie film makers and producers after just a short period of time. In fact, from 2006-2012, she has been in over 35 commercials, including a recent Regional Hy-Vee commercial with Chef Curtis Stone. In 2008, she landed the opportunity to be in the recurring cast for the 3 Time Emmy Award Winning Steve & Kathy Show, produced out of Kansas City. She has also had key roles in award winning films such as 'The Lamp', 'Works in Progress', 'Bonnie & Clyde vs. Dracula' and the student film 'Alpha, Bravo, Charlie'. She has also received a nomination as Best Actress in her own production called 'Living Waters' at the Gideon Media Arts Conference and Film Festival in 2011. After appearing in over 20 films, she landed one of the lead roles in an Indie film called Pitching Hope, directed by Tony Mendoza, an Army Soldier who filmed the movie shortly after returning from Afghanistan in early 2010. This is set to be distributed in 2012. Since this film, she has been in now over 30 Indie Films. She is not only an exciting actress, but a dynamic individual that shines optimism and has been asked to hold various speaking engagements to motivate others to pursue their goals and dreams. Not only is Anita Cordell a delight to be on set, but she is now also in full swing with producing projects herself. Her goal is to continue to find supporting roles in feature films as well as assist in the production of as many projects as she can. - IMDb Mini Biography By: anonomous
