Fantastic Femmes--Joan Severance

Yet another model turned actress, Joan managed to go from doing high-profile national advertising campaigns to a critically-acclaimed recurring role as a villainess on the WiseGuy tv series within six months after changing careers!
Her credits since are mostly genre roles, including some rather physically-demanding stunt work!
(She's also appeared sans garb in a number of films, both genre and non-genre...)
Joan's also moved behind the camera, handling co-producing duties on several of the films she's appeared in!
Genre appearances include...
Lost Gold of Khan (Cora)
Wicked, Wicked Games (Anna Whitman)
Born (Dr. Sammael)
CSI: Miami "Money Plane"
She Spies "Love Kills"
Mystery Woman (Mary Stenning)
Cause of Death (Angela Carter)
Last Seduction II (Bridget Gregory)
Black Scorpion / Black Scorpion II: AfterShock (Black Scorpion aka Darcy Walker)
Profiler (Christine Logan)

Matter of Trust aka Surgeon (Theresa Marsh)

See No Evil, Hear No Evil (Eve)

The only dedicated site I could find for Joan features, shall we say, age-inappropriate photos, so I won't list it here. Of course, if you were to e-mail me... ;-)
