What others who have worked with me/seen me perform have to say.

"...Ferrara does well as the voice of reason, counter balancing her sister’s manic behavior."

Jim Dorman

The Patriot Ledger

(From a review of "The Boy with No Name," a North Quincy Community Theatre show.)

“Mary was a pleasure to work with, her screen presence is amazing. She did so well on the first film that we brought her back to work on a second one. She's truly a wonderful actress!”

Isabel Garcia

Filmmaker, IG Media Productions

“I hired Mary for a student film I was directing, and not only was she smart, capable and organized, but she brought her own creativity to the part that made it a joy to work with her. I found that Mary put all her energy into delivering the material to the point where I minimally needed to direct her. She would be a welcome addition to any team!”

Sean Huck

Filmmaker, New England Institute of Art Film Dept.

"Mary is a great person to work with on any production and casting directors, directors looking to improve the quality of their films should consider her for their projects.”

Andres Sanchez
