Bio
Once upon a time- in an immoral era of Whitney Houston number one hits, Top Gun and cocaine- Dave and Gail Ross popped out a kid.
And that kid was me.
My mom wanted to name me Jessica but my father refused on the premise that Jessica Walter tried to kill Clint Eastwood in Play Misty For Me. Subsequently, I was named after some model. My middle name is the most predictable right next to Marie (which happens to be my sister's). My last name is the eighty-ninth most common in the US and a prime example of Ellis Island screwing up lineages.
Thus, I am Marissa Ann Ross.
I did the whole growing-up bit in Upland, California. Then I booked it, "going to college" in Orange County. Realizing I didn't give a hoot or a holler for Astronomy 100 or any form of Algebra I supposedly needed to get by, I left and graduated from the Baron / Brown School of Theatrical Arts in Santa Monica. I've always acted and I've always wrote and I have come to accept that this is my lot in life.
Most of my pieces are of those that examine the human condition and life's ironies as well as pop culture, art and general grievances I have with the world.
