      Amber Dawn Lee was featured in Creative Screenwriting magazine as a writer whose screenplay works are "raw and full of heart." Greg Brooker (Stuart Little writer) said "Amber Lee has an innate instinct to understand drama and she puts it on the page beautifully."

      Two of her screenplays Mockstar and Children of the West were quarter finalists in the AAA screenwriting competition. Amber created her own production company Abovo Films in 2010.

      After roles in short and feature indie films in Texas she realized her career could only happen if she moved to Los Angeles

      At the encouragement of friends, she packed up her car in the middle of the night and drove straight to California. She checked into the Sportsmen's Lodge, and started acting classes at the world famous Beverly Hills Playhouse.

      Amber Dawn Lee is a humanitarian and speaks on panels around the United States on issues of animal rights. She has saved several dogs from shelters, and found them homes.

      She has been featured in several magazines as a model including the cover of Met Magazine, and Miami fashion shows for Versace. She appeared on Good Morning America with Dianne Sawyer.

      In 2012 she filmed a documentary (The Rise and Fall of Zion) in Colorado City, Arizona, and Utah where the rapist Warren Jeffs leads a polygamist commune.

Quotes

  • Live with passion!
  • I'm a dreamer of dreams, but then again, so are the losers, so the true dreamers have to be the dreamers of action towards dreams. So, maybe I'm a dreamer of action, yeah, I'm a dreamer of action, especially in films.
  • I've been acting for as long as I remember, starting with family shows I would produce in the backyard. I charged a quarter and used my sisters and neighborhood kids as actors and dancers, and I always played the lead. Entertaining, It's what I do, its who I am, and that will never change. Hollywood has a different version of what being an actor is. For me, success is doing what you love, and staying out of the results, and helping others do the same along the way.
  • Me and my dog are on the same medication, you don't want either one of us to run out, and especially at the same time.
  • There was a time when I wanted to apply to be on The Swan makeover show because I felt like I was so ugly I needed to change everything.
