Born and raised on the southside of Chicago, Marcia "Gofindmars" Eastmond is an actor, photographer, and poet. Most often her multidisciplinary storytelling explores themes such as identity, mental health, and spirituality.Marcia discovered joy in self-expression when she wrote her first poem at 8 years old, which would later be the foundation of her artistic development. In high school, she discovered the many roles she could have as an artist. During the time, Marcia became her school's newspaper lead photographer, a radio host apprentice, and an editor of a magazine entitled Spotlight. She also discovered her love for performance when she began to participate in Louder than a Bomb, Chicago's largest youth poetry competition. She then became a spoken word artist and explored other avenues of performance such as theatre and dance. By 2014, she discovered her love for acting and eventually moved on to receive her BA in Acting in 2020 from Columbia College Chicago.As of now, she hopes to continue to expand as an artist.Support the show
