From the slums of Chicago to the hills of Hollywood, to legendary Carnegie Hall, award-winning actress, author, and teacher Susan Slavin has always triumphed over adversity.
Susan’s story touched me deeply and affected me for days afterward. What she endured and overcame in her life is an inspiration to everyone. When you listen to her remarkable interview, stay tuned until the end – cry with her, rejoice with her.
Born into abject poverty (one dinner roll to feed a family of six) and a family crippled by severe mental illness, Susan created miracles in her own life and the lives of others against all odds.
Starting with her scholarship to the famed Chicago Art Institute at age 12, then following her dream of becoming an actress to Hollywood in her early teens, Susan quickly became a working actress, winning numerous awards.
There, she was discovered by and worked with legendary director Jerome Robbins, (“A revelation…. the best actress I’ve come across.”). He then summoned her to NYC where she built a critically acclaimed body of work, (“Stands out among the rest…” NY TIMES), as an actress in film, TV, and onstage.
She demonstrated great range in works from zany comedy to high drama, to the classics, and everything in between. She played roles that stretched the gambit from innocence to worldly-wise---from the homeless, to proper professionals, to upscale high-style glamour. She co-starred opposite such stars as Glenn Close, Martin Sheen, Jean Smart, Maureen Stapleton, and Burt Reynolds.
