Is a founding member of the American Theatre of Harlem, tracing her roots with the Company back to its infancy in 1989 under the guidance and tutelage of Hal DeWindt.

As an actress, she has appeared on stage, film and television in a variety of roles.
Dawn also shares her time with other not-for-profit institutions serving on the boards of Arts at St. Ann's, (Brooklyn based performing arts producing organization) and the Medgar Evers College Foundation (a CUNY institution).
Dawn believes in the power of theater and wants to see ATH use that power to enrich the lives of its members, students, audiences and friends for generations to come.
Judith Faison
A native New Yorker, Ms. Faison has always been excited by the cultural opportunities afforded by what she believes is the center of the cultural universe.
She has also directed company versions of A View From the Bridge and staged readings of A Soldier's Story, The Woolgatherer, and The Old Settler. She has performed for the company as Stella in Street Car Named Desire.
Ms. Faison is committed to the vision of ATH as a theatre company that serves up quality fare at a reasonable price. I believe audiences deserve a quality theatre experience no matter what community they may come from. When they leave the theater after an ATH performance, they have been touched - mind, body and soul
