Dora Pereli movie list
Dora spent her tender years as a tom boy, wrestling her brothers, wrangling a dog that outweighed her and sending soccer moms into a frenzy as she climbed things at the playground (higher than 5-year-olds have any right to climb). She began conservatory training in voice and cello at the age of 6. Between years of singing in choir at her parent's hippie church, to performing in cello orchestras and chamber groups, she spent a large amount of time on the stage. That desire to perform just became stronger, leading her to high school, where she invested her time acting in the fall plays and singing and dancing in the spring musicals. In between all of the singing, cello playing and acting, she was backpacking during the summers, working at the local pizza joint, thrift shopping at goodwill, and picking jokes with her brothers at nightly family dinners. She spent two college years studying acting in Baton Rouge (Geaux Tigers!) where she found her love for acting in front of the camera. That love and desire to be in the heart of the business, pushed her to buy an ancient convertible and road trip with her Dad from Boston to LA. Top down the whole way, sunburn and all. She loves Tinseltown, and the beautiful, creative people who live here. She enjoys to hike in the hills, still sings and plays cello in a band, acts in all kinds of things, fancy and not so much, and still bickers with her brothers whenever she can. Imagining and creating what life would be like as another human, and then becoming that human for a period of time - it's a vulnerable and expressive art that Dora continues to learn, practice, and explore. She can't imagine doing anything else with her life, for it brings her so much joy.
