Janice Power's inaugural appearance in a major feature film was a pivotal one, as she took on the role of Evelyn, the mother of the titular character in the Dutcher murder mystery film "Bigham City" (2001). This highly challenging part required a remarkable emotional range from Power, as her character's reactions to the brutal murder of her daughter were limited to relatively few lines of dialogue. Despite these limitations, Power's portrayal of Evelyn showcased her impressive acting abilities and left a lasting impression on audiences.
Power's journey as an actress began in her hometown of El Paso, Texas, where she was raised. She later relocated to Utah, where she continued to hone her craft and pursue her passion for acting. In addition to her work in film, Power is also well-known among Latter-day Saint audiences for her role as the wife of Parley P. Pratt in the Church's production "How Rare a Possession." Her extensive experience in Church videos has allowed her to build a loyal following, and she has also made guest appearances on the popular television show "Touched by an Angel."
