Sarah Rose Graber is currently entering her senior year at Northwestern University where she is studying theatre and art history. Originally from Miami, Florida, she has always had a passion for the arts and exploring the world around her. Last year she was accepted into the Shakespeare Program at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London where she studied acting and performed the leading role in the world premiere of the play Acapulco . As an actress, playwright, and director, Sarah has presented her work to many audiences throughout the world.

In her high school years, Sarah was a founding member of Children's Imagination Theatre Ensemble which performed for mentally and physically challenged audiences, teaching them the importance of being an individual and the moral duty of helping others. Sarah soon became the leader in this company and performed for many schools, hospitals, and youth organizations throughout Florida.

Sarah has also written several plays. She has adapted The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe into a bilingual play to be understood by both English and Spanish speakers as well as transformed Edmund Spenser's epic poem, The Faerie Queene , into a mask play called IMAGO which she wrote and directed that brings awareness to the imagination's role in art. She was the recipient of both the Center for Interdisciplinary Research in the Arts Grant (CIRA) and the Program in the Study of the Imagination Grant (PSI) for her production of IMAGO.

Most recently, Sarah is off on her own great adventure, as the Circumnavigator Foundation's Travel Around the World Study Grant Scholar, to research the way in which theatre is used as a tool for communication and education in communities around the world to encourage social change. She will travel to England, South Africa, Kenya, Mauritius, Australia, New Zealand, and Argentina in search of better understanding the utilization of theatre to make the world a better place.
