IMDB

Raising Buchanan

Amanda Produced and stars in the feature film, Raising Buchanan, now available to rent or buy.  


In suburban Phoenix, 40-year-old Ruth Kiesling is not exactly “living the dream.” She’s a donut shop employee with anger issues.  Ever the opportunist and desperate for money, she “steals” the body of President James Buchanan hoping to ransom him for a nice windfall –– but she’s surprised to discover that no one seems particularly interested in getting him back. 

Raising Buchanan

Verve Studios

In 2005, after moving to Phoenix from Los Angeles, Amanda saw a need for Professional Actor training and created Verve Studios to fill that need. 

Focusing on aspiring to working actors, Verve’s curriculum is thorough from foundational to working actor classes.  They are taught by working, degreed seasoned professional and are nurturing and honest, designed to encourage and help shape the artist through creativity, truth and discipline. Coaching physically in the Scottsdale Airpark and virtually via Zoom..
