Affectionately known as Broadway for her animated charisma, Broadway has done stand-in, stunt work, features, and failed pilots. These experiences sparked her independent peregrination. Her directing debut, Silenced Dialogues encompasses vicissitudes of black female body-politics in early America. The title birthed out of Professor Lisa Delpit's academic work in which Dr. Avery co-presented at Teachers College's Re-imagining Education conference in NYC.
She has designed costumes for Adrienne Unae's Universe, Black & Brown Theater, The African American Day Parade, Victory, and docu-shorts.
She's voiced online commercials, documentary segments, and is currently voicing her novel, Beyond the Gate. Here is her voice sample.
