As a “blonde” …
Actor … Esse ….
I discovered that earning a Teenage Master’s Degree from NYU – meant …
Not very much … to many in the Hollywood and/or International Film Industry … except for, a handful of people with interests beyond Reality … TV … who became interested in my work …
Inexplicably, I turned down Good Money
for supposed “dream roles” that I auditioned for and won – as a Girl who hoped to “Make It” … according to a particular standard definition of that phrase …
The roles were … in my opinion … degrading to all women … and certainly to this Girl …
I came from an abusive Childhood Home and had found Solace in School, with ANGELS called “TEACHERS” who guided me past the many shipwrecks that my parents laid down as foundation for my life …
I tried to play along … work my way up and “Paid My Dues” … like “A Good Girl” …
But finally … I realized that I certainly … was not about to throw away all those Scholarship blessings and tender Teacher treasures … in exchange for endless opportunities to portray one more “lifeless” blonde … or Brunette if I got lucky …
I was advised by my manager, my partner, and other Pros who had seen the range of my work … –
To go ahead and take the risk my gutt was daring me to take –
To simply do what I do … and have done – in NY and then LA … as a RunawayWithaScholarship™
I had Co-Starred, Directed / Written Performed in off-off Broadway / Experimental projects …
When I got hired for some Indie films – I wrote extra dialogue to provide some Heart and Grit to the female roles …
And I remain a “Gun For Hire” Actress – but I decided – when I portray a GIRL on screen – that GIRL will have not only a ROLE … but also a SOUL …
When I inhabit a ROLE … I am somehow Channeling My SISTERS and I must do them Justice in the Context of the Global Culture that witnesses the powerful Film Medium …
I must pay respect to 1GlobalGirlZ™ with every role, every song, every film …
Femme is ALSO the underlying vulnerability at the core of LGBT Culture … and this too is at the heart of my work …
Civil Rights is the Umbrella providing Structure to all of these themes and when one gets to the Heart of the Matter …
It’s about Love = Love ~>
Armed with a Masters’ Degree but no High School Diploma … ( due to skipping grades several times and a scholarship initiative) … and a voice that was becoming painful to squelch … even more painful when squelched …
I dared myself … and took on the dare …
At first, I forged a co-production partnership agreement with Academy Award winning Executive Producer Hans De Weers (“Antonia’s Line”) but … there were some personal issues that led to my realizing …
In order to be “Truli, Indie” it was necessary for me to be :
Truli*Cali™
I am an Actor-Esse, an Indie FilM and Music MakeR …
@ The Cali Lili Indies™ VenusBeach™ which I operate like a Rock N’ Roll Band cross-bred with an Athletic Team.
I bring the Products to Market like an Organic Farmer.
Sometimes, this entails making difficult choices, in order to preserve the Integrity of one’s work – because without that integrity – there is nothing …
And that’s how we came to be Fiercely IndiePendent ™ and FeMPoWered™
Accepting myself as “Being The Change” in my own profession – led to some amazing insights, growth … and growing up … without losing the Innocence of my Vision.
The Projects I have lined up to share with you …
… and indeed the Launch of Cali Lili Indies ™ Pictures Words & Music In Motion ™ are the reflection of an ongoing “blossoming.”
My team and I SO APPRECIATE Your Supportive Comments, Re-Tweets, Re-Blogs, Faves and Repeats
And we hope you will consider : PURCHASING the Indie Feature Film and Indie Rock Album … The First of Many … that are On the Way 2 U With Love = Love ~ >
They will be released … When they are RIPE … and ready for Market : )
The Survival of this IndiePendent™ 21st Century Artist …
and the FeMPoWered™ Movement I have outlined in my WoManiFest0™ …
is the result of my decision to simply DO my JOB … which is :
To Weave my Patch of the CulturalFabric™ and there-by contribute to that which so many Artists have threaded …
The Survival of this IndiePendent™ 21st Century Artist is finally something which I can direct with my own hands …
And
The Survival of this IndiePendent™ 21st Century Artist is also … in the hands of the general public –
YOU , my dear friends …
“We the People” to whom our CULTURE Rightly Belongs …
Instead of …
What was once, not long ago, …
Purely in the hands of Corporations, (NOT People), …
Congloms … which have been the “Deciderers” of the CulturalFabric™ belonging to US …
“We the People” … Embody this CulturalFabric™
I’m still somewhat of a “RunawayWithaScholarship™” …
But now, I’m Running Toward ~ >

Informal Biography + Anecdotes :
"I'm still that teenage runaway with a scholarship ... lol, I got a Masters' Degree from NYU, but no high school diploma ... "
Actress * Director * Singer * Songwriter Cali Lili skipped several grades (having been tested as reading at college level in grade school) took her first college course in the entire works of Shakespeare, at age 13, never graduated high-school, never even went to a prom, was swooped up, landing at NYU, then completed her Masters' Degree on full scholarship with awards / stellar reviews for early works.
The Cali Lili ™ Band recorded a completely original stand-alone "Urban / World / Rock © " styled Singer-Songwriter Debut Album which forms the core of the soundtrack for her debut feature film :
'eVe N'god ™ this female is not yet rated ™ ' now streaming on demand on iTunes 🍎Apple TV etc…
She made the feature length narrative motion picture with an ALL FEMALE production team.
'eVe N'god this female is not yet rated ™ ' is perhaps, the first ( or one of the first ) production of it's kind : a theatrical feature length motion picture, in which the technical production roles employed only women during principal photography. She began pre-pre-production on this "fempoword™" project in 2010, including rehearsal footage.
Cali is told that she was born "early" and "on the water." Having experienced an extremely difficult childhood, she does not revisit those days, and often speaks out against abuse.
Born of multi-cultural heritage, Cali is keenly aware and concerned with what she sees as a form of "tribalism" too often employed as "nationalism." Cali writes about these issues and acts accordingly when it comes to her public image.
Cali adores being an actor and takes that craft very seriously, but found herself turning down 3 acting offers, that she felt were disempowering to women, in order to "turn up" what she calls fempower (TM) by scraping together "half a shoestring budget" to build her "green" "off-grid," upcycled "surfshack" feMt0™studi0 in the "floating" neighborhood of Venice Beach in Los Angeles, California where she makes "Signature" auteur Motion Pictures, Albums and Books, "TinyMultiMedia™️ HandMade2MakeADifference™”©
Based on the quality of her work as an artist, and her uncompromising dedication to excellence, she then raised modest financing for her upcoming Slate of Motion Pictures, Albums, and Books.
She works from the Cutting Edge Of The Pacific ™" @ The Cali Lili Indies ™ " where she stays "afloat" connected with her love and devotion to "rippling waters of the world"
Cali's degree included extensive studies in anthropology as well as performance techniques from all over the globe. She holds an added background of intense New York studies in dance /choreography.
Cali is proud to share her deep connection with "Mother Africa." She is greatly inspired by African culture, the cultures of Oceania, and that of her other diverse intercultural studies.
Cali's quote :
"We all originate from one mother in Africa, the Ocean is our collective unconscious, so let us honor each other, our mutual mother, our waters, and our blue mothership, earth. In doing so, we save ourselves "©
Cali's films are inclusive of lgbtq characters and the authentic real lives of these characters. She also delves into the reality of "being female" and a "multi-cultural blend" who "appears to be white," in a biased world.
Cali's career in movies began as a teenager, flying back and forth from NY to LA, while working as an "au pair."
As a kid, she "raised herself" in spite of an abusive childhood and vowed she would never marry, but she married her male partner in 2012, contrary to gossip that they were married earlier.
The partnership between Cali and Wings is unique and her work / films reflect upon relationships and gender / orientation / politics in culture and society in the 21st Century .
Womens' Rights, Human Rights, Feminist, Lesbian, LGBTQ and Bi-Sexual matters are included, along with other Social Justice and Environmental Justice as part of her projects, sharing stories about the authentic lives of characters navigating the "waters" of the 21st Century.
With legendary 'Edward G. Robinson as one of the distinguished members of her ancestry, Cali dedicates herself to honoring a tradition of excellence and earning her "place" as an up-and-coming young artist.
She has been granted the rights to the favorite novel of legendary 'Zane Grey (I) by Grey's son Loren Grey ( writer and educator) for a film adaptation in which she will co-star.
As a young Indie Performer and Creator, Cali and her partner, veteran actor 'Wings Hauser' along with Cali's team of handpicked skilled film and music professionals, are producing a growing catalogue of original films and songs.
Cali is already busy in preps for the next green-lighted project, using her proprietary methodologies as described in her book "The Declaration of IndiePenDance™"
In the past, Cali previously worked in a collaboration agreement deal with Academy Award winning Dutch producer, 'Hans de Weers' (Antonia's Line) which ended when Cali realized it was time to build her own tiny studio, in order to make projects that empower Women, LGBTQIA , Civil Rights and Climate Science communities.
Her wish is to continue sharing her heart with the hearts of the beautiful fans she hears from, daily.
We here at GTA Management, hope you will take some time to support her works.
