Many of you are already familiar with Lori Rosas; you just don’t realize it. She was Kate Winslet’s full-time stand-in on the movie Titanic. Despite that high-profile role she, perhaps surprisingly, does as much work behind the camera handling make-up, wardrobe, casting, and photography, as she does in front of it modeling and acting. Born and raised in Arkansas, she moved to Los Angeles when she was 17, and has been here in the Evansville area since the summer of 2003. Taking advantage of our city’s proximity to so many other larger markets in the industry, and actually preferring the relative calm of a smaller town life over the grind of LA, she has made this home base for her Talent and Crew Network (www.TalentandCrewNetwork.com). Her other current projects are many and varied, including recently completed independent horror flick HAG, a documentary, a short called Live & Die, as well as various print ads, and even a music video with Jon McLaughlin. I couldn’t help but picture her, after hours in icy waters, truly enjoying warming her buns in the Hot Seat.
