Who is Emily Ember?
Emily Ember is a Chicago-based Catholic Creative. Since graduating Northwestern University as a theatre major, she has performed on stage, on screen (as a Co-Star in FOX’s The Exorcist), and behind the microphone. Her love of storytelling compelled her to begin writing and producing her own short films (and in many cases, to be the film editor as well).
Emily also studied improv and comedy, graduating from the Second City Conservatory and iO Program. She performed regularly around Chicago with her sketch comedy/improv troupe, Rough Cut Players, and performed at numerous improv festivals across the US and in Canada with her long-form improv troupe, Horror of Terror. After recently deepening her faith, Emily is currently using her talents for the greater glory of God.
