Teneshia Lewis

My name is Teneshia Cheri Lewis and I am a non-union TV/Film actress who has a strong and unique work ethic, extensive creativity, and stamina; I enjoy consistently delving deep into the process of character-development and scene analysis.  The art of storytelling (especially to help teach others key life lessons and more) is remarkable and it is a blessing to be chosen and trusted to fulfill a character who plays any part in that process. Although I am based in Worcester, Massachusetts, I have enjoyed frequent travel to NYC/NJ to act in drama /thriller/action films and a true crime documentary series ("Philly Homicide Season 2") aired on Oxygen network. (I would travel to nearly any location if the right opportunity presented itself). I have been cast to play a forensic psychiatrist (Dr. Leslie Thompkins, co-lead in "The Outlaw" which is a Red Hood indie feature film scheduled to premiere in NYC this coming late fall/early winter), medical examiner, mother/killer, Ghanaian mother, and marriage therapist.  I strongly resonate with stories involving deep undercurrents of human connection, emotional strength, spirituality, conflict-resolution, resilience, and supernatural themes.
