Hunter Phoenix has spent more than two decades working in the entertainment industry. A career that spans modeling in Istanbul to acting on stage and on camera in Toronto, screen writing in London and voice overs done in more than a dozen countries, has made her a valuable commodity as an actress.A child performer, Hunter "came up through the theatre". She began formal theatrical and dance training as a pre-teen with a local theatre company and went on to study dramatic arts in college. Commercial print modeling took off when she was asked (in a bar) to audition for a beer commercial and instantly became a "poster girl".Hunter's love for the theatre brought her to study with legendary acting coach Uta Hagen: a process that transformed her approach to the craft and led her to such roles on stage as Blanche in Streetcar Named Desire, Alyss in Sex Tips for Modern Girls and as Karen in David Mamet's iconic Hollywood satire, Speed The Plow.Recently cast in the feature film The Bandit Hound II with Lou Ferrigno, Paul Sorvino and Catherine Bell, Hunter has also appeared onscreen in _"Mutant X', Doc', _"Singles Court"_, PSI Factor: Chronicles of the Paranormal (1996), and has hosted for HGTV. In 2016 Phoenix played the lead in the feature film The Master of Pulpits as well as two short films, Beyond Approval (2016) and The Perfect Family (2016) which was featured in the Belize International Film Festival after premiering at the Screamfest Horror Film Festival in Hollywood, CA.In addition to her creative work, Hunter also pursued a degree in psychology that took her into the self-help industry. Committed to not only her own personal growth but also in assisting others, she has led workshops, worked with clients one on one, and has more than 100 published articles on spiritual growth and personal success in publications such as The Globe and Mail, Fox Business, Women's Day and Shape. Her first book, previously published as Perfect Lives and Other Fairy Tales has been revised and expanded and is set for re-release in late 2017.Ms. Phoenix's current focus is to expand her body of work as an actress and writer, sharing stories and creating experiences that are deeply personal, transformative and entertaining.
