Parental Fears and Unwavering Assistance

The real magic of acting is the ability to reach into the depths of human emotion and to bring a character to life in a way that connects with the audience."
"The First Omen" has demonstrated not only Free's remarkable range as an actress, but also her devotion and passion to her work. Her desire to take on the obstacles of her career and share her personal experiences will surely inspire and captivate audiences for years to come as she forges ahead in the entertainment world.
