About
Maria Viola Jefferson, born to Sicilian immigrant parents, is a first generation, Italian - American. Maria's parents both worked in factories growing up and struggled financially. She was first to get a college degree in her family and grounded her career as a Nurse in 1999. But a true love for writing and illustrating never left her hand. Beginning with her published children's book, "Lefty Lucy for President", Maria decided to take her writing to the next level and turn an existing story, Offstage Elements, into a screenplay. In an exciting collaboration with Director, Frank Lisi of DreamQuest Entertainment, we have officially wrapped Principle Photography for Offstage Elements and are currently in post production!!

The band, Brass Angel, is fronted by Vik, the lead singer and manager of the band.
