Paula Jay Fairbrother was born and raised in Bloomington, Minnesota (don'tcha know!). She graduated from St. Olaf College with a B.A. in Speech/Theater Education. After graduation, she moved to Los Angeles and worked in TV/Film production at various studios, including Walt Disney, Warner, Steve Bochco Productions and TriStar Television. At 29, wanderlust ensued, and she solo-backpacked through Europe for 3 months. She ended up living in Germany for 13 years, putting her talents to use in many ways: as a USO tour guide to over 60 cities throughout Europe; producing, directing and training over 400 volunteers at the award-winning Razz-Ma-Tazz Family Theater, Ramstein Air Force Base, Germany; and working as a Microsoft-certified trainer and courseware writer for 15 years. Paula's first SAG-AFTRA role was in the feature film, Gosnell: America's Biggest Serial Killer as Department of Health Agent, Sandra Rhodes, opposite Dean Cain and Sarah Jane Morris (directed by Nick Searcy). She then worked opposite Shelley Long and Seirra McCormick in Christmas in the Heartland (directed by Harvey Lowry). Paula also enjoys world travel, writing, photography, scuba diving, dogs and chocolate. Show less «
