Sarah Lynn Dawson is a British actress, filmmaker, and a storyteller with vision, whose work bridges cinematic expression with global consciousness. Trained at New York's Lee Strasberg Institute, Sarah's career reflects a fusion of classical performance, metaphysical inquiry, and narrative innovation.
Born in the north of England, Sarah spent much of her childhood traveling between the UK and Qatar - a cross-cultural upbringing that exposed her to a diverse range of worldviews and ignited her passion for storytelling at a young age. She discovered her love for performance in community theatre at age seven and went on to star in numerous school productions, often taking lead roles in Greek tragedies, where her early fascination with myth and emotional depth took root.
As an actress, Sarah voiced The Mother in the Academy Award-nominated feature I Lost My Body and portrayed Emerald in Duality. Her lead role in the 1940s noir Unsolved, which she also produced, exemplifies her focus on narratives centered around powerful, resilient women.
A creator with a multidimensional approach, Sarah co-created and stars in Stepping Into Shakespeare, a 21-episode podcast series reviving Hamlet and Twelfth Night through a modern, soul-centric lens. She also wrote and starred in Duality, a short film narrated by Deepak Chopra that explores inner awakening and premiered at HollyShorts Film Festival in LA.
In 2025, Sarah was recognized as one of the featured artists at the Future of Humanity Exhibition in Davos, Switzerland, spotlighting her work as a filmmaker contributing to global discourse on human potential, symbolic evolution, and spiritual resilience.
Her journey includes formal training at The Lee Strasberg Institute in New York, selection for the prestigious BAFTA/LA Newcomers Program, and mentorship through The Actors Studio under Martin Landau. These foundations continue to inform her visionary approach to performance and narrative.
Rooted in both the poetic and the practical, Sarah's storytelling often centers around themes of transformation, feminine empowerment, trauma recovery, and the re-enchantment of modern life. She also supports global humanitarian efforts through her advocacy for organizations such as UNICEF and Plan USA.
