Sista Salute

Saluting....


Rosalyn Coleman-Williams
Filmmaker – Actress


Performing at The Studio Theatre in Washington , D.C. was a homecoming of sorts for Rosalyn Coleman.  With her family, she moved to Washington at the age of 10. She graduated from Duke Ellington School of the Arts and Howard University before continuing her studies at Yale School of Drama.  She has performed numerous roles on Broadway and in Hollywood films.  Runaway Home marks Coleman's professional stage debut in the Washington area.  

(Coleman plays the controversial lead character, a mother of five children who struggles to make ends meet, then chooses to leave her family behind in favor of a fresh start with a male suitor)

Coleman's television appearances include NYPD BLUE, New York Undercover, HBO's OZ, and Law and Order.  She has worked with such actors as Meryl Streep, Angela Bassett, Charles Dutton, Danny Glover, Tom Cruise, Alfre Woodard, and Samuel L. Jackson.  She has appeared in more than twenty feature films including Vanilla Sky and Brown Sugar.

In addition to acting, Coleman runs a film production company, Red Wall Productions, with several  projects in various stages of production.  She wrote and directed the short films Broken, The Starter Marriage Project and Driving Fish, which is currently being developed into a feature film with Affinity  Films International.  She recently directed the short film Allergic to Nuts, which is presently in post-production.  Coleman is also producing the feature film Game Night written and directed by her husband and partner, Craig Williams.

On a personal note...Rosalyn and Craig, still newlyweds, decided to invest the monetary gifts collected from their wedding presents in their company  Red Wall Productions.   Judging by their collective creativity and positive and motivating attitudes, my guess is we'll be hearing a lot from this power duo!
