GINA WILHELM ACTRESS I'm looking forward to one day playing the Baroness in “The Sound of Music.“ My all-time favorite role is the Wicked Witch of the West in “The Wizard of Oz.“ While I frequently play mean or otherwise unpleasant women, I am really a very nice person. My vocal range is mezzo-soprano with an augmented low range. My voice has been described by one of my instructors as “rich and soothing.“ HOLLYWOOD ACTRESS From the classic old days of legendary actress Audrey Hepburn to the present days of American sweetheart Megan Fox, Hollywood has always been the desired destination for beautiful aspiring actresses and models from across the world.
