Melissa Malan
How can we possibly describe Melissa Malan in a paragraph? She's an amazing actress, a brilliant director, a wonderful human being (and that's just the start!) Melissa has starred in three Herbivore Productions thus far ("A Loving Memory", "Gless", and "The Mockingbird"), co-directed "Gless", and helped develop the story for "The Mockingbird." Outside of Herbi, Melissa has appeared in numerous stage and film productions in St. Louis, Chicago, and Los Angeles (where she now calls home.) It can truly be said that we never would have gotten off the ground without her.

Rebecca Steer
Actress Rebecca Steer starred in her first Herbivore Production "The Mockingbird" and was so damn good that she went ahead and jumped into the lead role of our first official HerbiShort "How Deep Is The Rabbit Hole?" Rebecca is an incredible actress and model and has appeared in stage and film productions across the United States (and even did a little work over there in Europe!) No one swings a paddle or wields a knife like she can!

Gari Hart
A
long time friend who currently is a film critic for the Chicago
Examiner, Gari once sat through a viewing of the film "Salo" without
blinking until the last credit rolled. And THEN he fell asleep! Follow
this link to read all of his movie reviews (the best and most honest
ones in Chicago.) A special "thank you" goes his way for his stellar
article on Herbivore Productions (wink, wink...)
