Synopsis…

Hi, my name is Liv Michaels (she/they)!

I’m so glad you stopped by to check out my website. I’m a recent NYU graduate, where my primary studio was the Atlantic Acting School before I transferred to Stonestreet Studios to focus on my love of film and television. Most recently, I was in Off-Broadway productions such as Little Women (Meg March) and Hamlet (Rosencrantz). I have also been working on short film scripts. I’m looking forward to focusing on my craft and finding myself along the way. 

I’m originally from a small town in the Detroit suburbs, but I relocated to NYC for school and never looked back. As an autistic lesbian with a disconnect to the idea of womanhood, my small town felt even smaller. Although I have no doubt that NYC is where I’m meant to be, Wayne, Michigan will always be home. 

I am passionate about creating the art I wish I had growing up. I long to showcase characters that are also neurodivergent, queer, or even just a little bit outside the box. When I had nowhere to turn as a kid, I had media to surround myself with and find comfort in; I hope that someday I can give that escape to someone else through my work.

This is just the beginning of a beautiful story. Now, let’s get writing.
