"It's not a perfect system, but if it didn't matter, people wouldn’t be trying so hard to stop you. Your vote matters."
Isa J. Miles is the consummate multi-hyphenate. The theater and film actress and soon- to-be-director has starred in some of the city’s most notable theatrical productions. These include the role of Gwen in New African Grove’s production of “A Song for Coretta”, numerous productions with Atlanta’s Alliance Theater’s Education Department and the lead in Marietta’s New Theater in the Square’s production of “A Raisin in the Sun”, a role for which she was nominated for a 2020 Taurean Award for Best Supporting Actress. Isa hails from SW Atlanta and is a graduate of Benjamin E. Mays High School, Howard University and Harvard University School of Public Health. When not on stage, she is a communicator at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Up next, whenever COVID-19 allows for a safe return to the stage, Isa can be seen in New African Grove’s production of “The Coping Mechanism” and is looking forward to making her directorial debut during the Etheridge Arts Ensemble’s upcoming season.
