MARIAH ROBINSON (AGENT FRESNO)

Described by critics as “frighteningly realistic” and “somewhat likable,” MARIAH ROBINSON has been struggling to create entertainment since a young age, when at five years-old she began whoring her talent to local church banquets and various school plays. She attended Beaver College in Glenside Pennsylvania, gaining an extensive education in Theatre Arts. On her final year at Beaver, the institute changed its moniker to Arcadia University, a stroke of luck allowing Mariah to graduate from a school whose name was not synonymous with female genitalia. On stage she has been featured in several classical productions. Her favorite roles include Marc Antony in “Julius Caesar”, Desdemona in “Othello”, and Rosalinde in “As You Like It”. Mariah currently resides in Los Angeles where every day she struggles bravely to shine her light upon the world.
