BIO: Emily Trask grew up in Northeastern Wisconsin, half a block from Lake Michigan, writing, riding horses, dancing, singing, playing the cello, being a sieve of a soccer goalie, and eating all the cheese. With a Canadian Historian for a Father, and Wisco Literature Prof Mother, Emily and her older brother were spoiled with amazing bedtime stories full of very rounded "O's". She credits this for her deep love of story-telling, and blames it for her addiction to poutine.
Emily studied Theatre and Literature at Grinnell College (known for its rigorous academics, innovative pedagogy, and commitment to social justice) in Iowa, and received her Masters of Fine Arts in Acting from the Yale School of Drama (rated 2019's No. 1 acting school in the nation). As a professional actor, Emily has lived and worked in over a dozen states and has acted professional on screen (in films, television shows, and commercials), on stage (from Bway stages to Regional - classical, contemporary, musical, new work, devised theatre, dance/movement), and as a voice-over artist. She currently makes her home on the beautiful Central Coast of California, as a Resident Artist, Faculty Member, and Literary Associate for the Pacific Conservatory Theatre - PCPA.
Emily is a proud member of the Actor's Equity Union and SAG-Aftra.
