Biography

Patti's early years were marked by a profound discovery - her passion for acting and the theatre, a fascination that would remain with her for the duration of her life. It was during this formative period that she became deeply immersed in the vibrant LA theatre scene of the 1980s, an era that played host to a multitude of artistic expressions and cultural movements.

Within this dynamic environment, Patti had the privilege of crossing paths with the renowned actor and director, Tim Robbins, and his esteemed troupe, The Actors' Gang. This chance encounter would prove to be a turning point in her career, as she went on to become a dedicated company member, performing in numerous productions, touring extensively, and serving as a lead teacher for many years.

Patti's pursuit of acting excellence was further nurtured through her studies at Northridge University, where she honed her craft under the guidance of esteemed instructors. However, it was her mentorship under the late Daryl Hickman, a highly respected acting teacher, that held a special place in her heart.

Born in France, Patti has since established herself as a versatile and accomplished artist, dividing her time between Los Angeles and Atlanta, Georgia, where she continues to work in film and television, leaving an indelible mark on the entertainment industry.
