Meet the Host: Mara Holland of ISLA EARTH
Mara Holland is delighted to give a voice to the many environmental issues facing us today. She is especially fond of successful animal conservation scripts. And as an artist says she would enjoy giving each animal a character voice. She has been the ‘voice’ for clients like HBO and Verizon. She is also an accomplished actress whose art has included community theater, film, commercial voiceover. Her work with costuming has included creations that span the playful (Disney attractions) to the sublime (“Flower Drum Song,” Mark Taper, Los Angeles). With a deep appreciation for nature, Mara counts Isla Earth among her most gratifying assignments.
