Actor - Voice Over Artist

Hi, I'm Suzanne Barbetta and welcome to my neighborhood! So who am I? I'm a Jersey Girl, born and raised; a versatile character actress with comic chops and a knack for dialects. Cruise around and get to know a little more about my current projects and me.

I suppose I could bore you with a typical bland-as-vanilla 3rd person bio but a) I’m more of a coffee-heath-bar-crunch kinda-girl and b) life is too short.

So here's what you need to know about me:

I’m a blue-collar kid from the Heights in Jersey City, who maybe watched a few too many B-movie musicals at my dad’s knee. I ‘paid my dues’ as an intern in regional theater becoming a card-carrying member of Actors Equity.

My repertoire is stocked with quirky, down-to-earth and complex women (as well as the occasional guy). But my grrrrrrls run the gamut from kinda kooky to highly neurotic to downright brassy broads, smart and smart-mouthed. Whether it’s a beat cop with anger management issues, an 1880’s Parisian painter decades ahead of her time, a foul-mouthed chain-smoking man-eating Puerto-Rican Jew who checks herself into Bellevue, or a hapless Bensonhurst hairdresser caught between drag queens and the Mob, my women fight hard and their love is fierce. Ok, so I’ve had a few hard knocks. But if you know me, it’s a mistake to ever count me out.
