Pam%2520Headshot_edited_edited.png

Pamela Magee grew up in Austin, Texas and always wanted to be part of the performing world.  She went to the Stella Adler Conservatory at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts to study acting, and while there she also began working as a music director for student productions. 

 

Pamela interned for the daytime television program All My Children and is proud to have been subsequently hired as the show’s Music Director. Along with All My Children, she also worked as Music Director for As the World Turns and Another World. Over the course of ten years, Pamela won two Emmy Awards for Outstanding Music Direction and was nominated a total of 13 times, after which she stepped back from television production to raise her family.

 

In recent years, Pamela returned to school with the intention of becoming a Life Coach for those with ADHD. She soon realized that she could use the skills she had learned as a Life Coach to help Brass Mantle grow as a production company. She enjoys working with the Brass Mantle team and looks forward to helping the company grow in the future.
