Speaking of SIFF, Marie loves Seattle in general, and the international film community that haunts the town in the summer in particular. For this reason, she found an excuse to attend this year.

2005's IFP Spotlight Award Grant winner Cheryl Slean brings her moving short film Diggers to the "Northwest Ties" program at the Egyptian Theatre, Monday, June 04, 7:00 PM.

Marie's role? One of a handful of grave diggers who dabble in the meaning of mortality - more specifically "What do you talk about while digging a grave?"

Marie's multi-page pictorial and interview in YOLK Magazine

It hit the newsstands 2/27/02, and it provides an in-depth discussion on the current state of Asian artists in Hollywood, the need to mentor new talent — and a few pages of eye candy for the guys.

"I was wondering for a long time why does it pay to be good. Lots of times when you’re good, people just step on you and kick your ass. I’m trying to find that balance."
