Anarae Silverwillow

Anarae Silverwillow was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona, where she attended Paradise Valley High School. During this time, her love affair with performing arts began in such plays as Rebel Without A Cause, The Bad Seed, and Hamlet. In 2001, she moved to Portland, Oregon where she grew her wings so to speak while attending festivals like FaerieWorlds and Portland's Saturday Market as a professional faery. In 2009, she was chosen to play the faery queen Danu in The Otherworld film, as well as performing in a grassroots storytelling show called Mortified. Anarae spends her time as a wife and mother to 2 beautiful children while obtaining her degree in physical therapy. She still performs on occasion in local play performances, though her focus is set on education and the creative arts. She intends to open a healing center for survivors of trauma.
