M a r ly n M a s o nConversations with Elvis’s leading lady, Marlyn Mason.

Come and spend a casual hour with an actress who started in television in 1949 and in her mid 60’s wrote, produced and starred in 3 short �lms. Today, at 76, she’s still at it. She is currently in two short �lms; one that just premiered last week at the Ashland Int’l Film Festival and another premiering at the Rhode Island Int’l Film Festival in August; also a feature length horror �lm, BESETMENT, that will premiere late October. She is the “horror” and had great fun playing a truly evil woman. In June she will be acting in another short �lm in Pierson, Florida. Bring your questions. Ask anything about �lm making you’ve always wanted to know!

Marlyn is aware that she is in the vanishing line; so many of her fellow actors have died, just recently Patty Duke. Her goal in life is to be the sole surviving leading lady of Elvis Presley which means she has to live to be 109! A noble goal, for sure!

Come and enjoy a terri�c chat with Marlyn Mason
