Hunter Phoenix

Hunter Phoenix has a career that spans modeling in Istanbul to acting on stage and on camera in Toronto, screen writing in London. A child performer, Hunter "came up through the theatre". She began formal theatrical and dance training as a pre-teen with a local theatre company and went on to study dramatic arts in college. Commercial print modeling took off when she was asked (in a bar) to audition for a beer commercial and instantly became a "poster girl". Hunter's love for the theatre brought her to study with legendary acting coach Uta Hagen: a process that transformed her approach to the craft and led her to such roles on stage as Blanche in Streetcar Named Desire, Alyss in Sex Tips for Modern Girls and as Karen in David Mamet's iconic Hollywood satire, Speed The Plow. Cast in the feature film The Bandit Hound II with Lou Ferrigno, Paul Sorvino and Catherine Bell, Hunter has also appeared onscreen in Mutant X, Doc, Singles Court, PSI Factor: Chronicles of the Paranormal and has hosted for HGTV. In 2016 Phoenix played the lead in the feature film The Master of Pulpits (2019) as well as two short films, Beyond Approval (2016) and The Perfect Family (2016) which has been featured at six film festivals including the Belize International Film Festival after premiering at the Screamfest Horror Film Festival in Hollywood, CA.
