Marwa Bernstein

Born in Texas, raised in Chicago, South Africa, Los Angeles, Hawaii, Europe, and claiming New York City as my own. I have a friend who swears I am a spy, raised by spies... which might, or might not be true. Living in so many places, you learn to fit in and adapt, which is very much like acting. Most recently I played a clueless shrink on the small screen in Netflix's "13 Reasons Why," and I got to play my first villain on the big screen in "The Stand at Paxton County," doing wildly bad things with Christopher McDonald. I love acting, performing of any kind really.
Whether it’s on the big screen, little screen, or in front of a live audience. And I have been doing it my whole life.
During this crazy time of 2020, I was accepted into a producing course with Sundance Collab, and am in pre-production on my first indie feature. I am a proud member of two amazing theatre companies in Los Angeles, Rogue Machine and Pacific Resident Theatre, and I have performed on stages around the world (in my past life) as a professional ballet dancer.
I think being an artist is a gift and I want to share it with as many people as possible. While spying on them. Allegedly.
