Cassie Jaye: I was a quiet kid preferring to observe from afar. My mom put me in theater class when I was eight years old to break me out of my shell and I loved it so much that I decided to move to Hollywood when I was 18 years old to become an actress. What I wasn't prepared for was to pigeon-holed as The Blonde Who Always Died. Granted, I had a good scream, but the characters I played weren't alone in feeling objectified. I was commonly harassed on the streets, hit on by married producers, told by photographers to come back when I lost 15 pounds and got a boob job, and a plethora of other uncomfortable experiences, all while still being a teenager. I started to realize my role in the world was a little too similar to the roles I was auditioning for and it was not how I saw myself or the person I wanted to be, so I quit acting and bought a video camera to tell the stories I wanted to tell and now I've been making documentary films since 2007 when I was 21 years old.
