Alysia Reiner

Alysia Reiner won me over as Fig in Orange Is the New Black, a role so deliciously infuriating that it could only come from a genuinely skilled actor. Vassar-trained and grounded in theater, she brings real craft to film and television alike. But what I admire most is that she doesn't just act, she builds. Producing the financial drama Equity and taking it to Sundance shows an artist determined to put women's stories on screen on her own terms. A performer who also writes and produces has a rare depth of range, and Reiner clearly intends to shape the work, not just appear in it.
