Blaire Chandler
Blaire Chandler was born in Dallas, Texas in a year which, being a true-blue Southerner, she believes is nobody's business.

Blaire made her stage debut at the age of five in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where she played the role of the Littlest Angel in "The Life of Shalom Alachem" - during which she irritated the grown-up actors by calling their lines out to them from the wings whenever they were taking a dramatic pause. By the time she decided to actually devote her life to acting, she'd done the lead in some 50 plays throughout Oklahoma and Arkansas.

Now a grown-up herself, Blaire has studied in New York at The Actors' Studio, and is a member of Los Angeles' Actors' Gang (Tim Robbins, Artistic Director). She has won numerous acting awards - including the LA Weekly Best Supporting Actress Award for her turn in the Aileen Wournos bio-play, "Self Defense - Or, Death of Some Salesmen," as well as the Cincinnatti Crictics Award and Cincinnatti Enquirer Award for Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of the darkly funny Kitty Oppenheimer, in "The Love Song of J. Robert Oppenheimer."

She won an LA Critics' Ovation Award for her Ensemble work in the original production of The Exonerated also at the Actors' Gang. She was also a member of the original LA and NY cast for Tim Robbin's highly controversial satire, Embedded, which debuted at the Actor's Gang and then went on to a sold-out run at The Public Theatre in New York.

She has been twice honored as the leading lady of Shakespeare Santa Cruz's summer season. She was a memorable Kate in Taming of the Shrew, a production which the San Francisco Chronicle called "The best production of Shrew in a decade". The following year, she delighted audiences with her twin roles of tragically wronged Hermione in The Winters' Tale and the funny, pragmatic, and apparently optically challenged Olivia in Twelfth Night.

She lives in Los Angeles, with her husband, the actor David Wilcox, and their three cats, Jake, Flint and Grypon.
