Olivia Hodson

I'm a bicoastal actress based in New York City with residency in LA and Boston. 

I'm collaborative, professional, extremely curious and never afraid to laugh at myself!

Moving around as a child has given me valuable perspectives on different ways of life. My biggest wish for my career is that I get to travel for my work. I love experiencing new places and seeing that underneath all our differences we're all humans who love and desire love. 

I seek roles that stretch my inner strength, have a complexity about them and that can introduce me to a skill that I otherwise would never come across. 

Through Film, TV, Song and Theatre it brings me the greatest pleasure when the story I am telling impacts people in a positive way. There's something to be heard from ANY story and my hope as an actor (with whatever crazy stories I'll get to tell) is to help the individual watching uncover whatever it is they need to hear. 

I also geek out to yoga, poetry, being in nature, learning French, helping animals, cooking, watching anything about the renaissance, and listening to music that is much older than me.

"Mare" is a Horror short film written and directed by Jospeh Burch. (in final stages pre-release)

Mare follows Kate, (Olivia Hodson) a young girl struggling with the recent death of her father while trying to maintain a civil relationship with her jaded mother. Kate is forced to put her dream of becoming an artist aside and embrace  the hard work of ranch life, something she's not too keen on. Increasingly hallucinatory events occur bringing us inside the mind of the grieving and leaving Kate to choose just how important her family is to her.
