Artists Bio

Grace Theresa Macedo was born in New Hyde Park, New York on March 17^th, 1997. Grace as a child was very over dramatic so naturally she felt acting was her calling. Her first audition was for the Ellie Greenwich Musical at Center Street Elementary School. She landed a singing role as Dee Dee singing "Today I Met the Boy I'm Gonna Marry."


After her first taste of theater Grace was hooked and later starred in various Herricks Middle School productions such as The Music Man, The Sound of Music, and Guys and Dolls. Grace's biggest role and personal favorite was of Elsa in the Sound of Music because she felt the character had similar struggles to her own. During the course of her middle school career Grace took private singing lessons at Laconia Music Center and also from Susan Kalman.

      As high school grew close Grace auditioned for a special arts program named STAC. She auditioned for acting, singing and submitted pictures she had taken for photography. She was accepted into the program her freshman year. Grace worked in acting workshops in STAC, but recently she has taken a break from acting and decided to dabble in the field of moviemaking. Grace had a fascination with abusive relationships at the time and decided to make a music video about it to the song "Unbeautiful," by Lesley Roy . Grace continued to write different scripts for different projects and after being in charge of some movies decided she also liked directing. Grace continues to switch fields in the artistic community trying to find her true calling.

 

            Graces’s philosophy is to do whatever makes her the happiest, which is the main reason she is always trying something new.  She is still searching for her passion within STAC (Students Television Arts Company) run by Luke Delalio at Herricks High School.
