Actress’s Production Company Creates Opportunities For Emerging Creatives
Cynthia Kaye McWilliams has always been interested in the arts, theatre and storytelling. She went to school to train in theatre, receiving her degree from the Theatre School of DePaul University. She thought she would do theatre and that would be her life. Then, her focus became more film and television because those were the opportunities that she had access to. The more opportunities she had in film and television, the more she fell in love with it.
