Marcia graces Guideposts Magazine cover
Posted: 2008-03-04

Marcia is featured with a cover story in the March issue of Guideposts Magazine with a very moving story about one of her first acting jobs in the late 80s - as Snow White for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. You can read the article online in the Magazines Archive and pick up your copy on newsstands.

Look up “struggling young actress” in the dictionary and you might see a
picture of me, circa 1982. Rushing to open casting calls in between waiting tables, always worried about how to make the rent. Just about the only acting cliché I wasn’t fulfilling at the time was living in New York City. I was based in Washington, D.C., where I was waiting to get my Screen Actors Guild Union card. When I did, then I’d make the big move to NYC. It was an uncertain time in my life, but one thing I was certain of: Acting meant everything to me. From the first part I’d played in high school (in Up the Down Staircase, thanks for asking!), there was a quality about acting that made me feel in touch with something big and mysterious and meaningful…. It may sound funny, but the feeling I got when I was playing a role I connected with was that God was using me for something good. When I was blessed with a role I was really passionate about, I felt like I was doing something I was truly meant to do.
