Susan Wilder

Susan Wilder is an American actress who has joyfully worked her entire life on stage and screen. From Mill Valley, California, she trained at the San Francisco Ballet School, did every play at Tamalpais High School, and studied under Bay Area theatre legend, James Dunn, at the College of Marin. She went east to join the People’s Light & Theatre Company in Philadelphia as a company member for six years. Her first leading film role was in THE SILENCE AT BETHANY, shot in the Pennsylvania Dutch countryside and directed by Joel Oliansky - who could answer every trivia question on every radio bible quiz. Susan has worked onstage across the country, appearing numerous times at Lincoln Center Theater, including “Ivanov” with Kevin Kline, and handpicked by Christopher Plummer for his “King Lear”. She studied Meisner technique with William Esper in New York, and earned a Masters Degree in Shakespeare with Michael Kahn in DC. She currently resides in Los Angeles - even though Northern Californians are never supposed to do that.
