Sylvia Kauders: "I want to do this until they lay me in the ground. I plan to go down kicking and screaming, 'I haven't finished yet!'"
The
Central Senior Services at the Parkway Central Branch of the Free Library of Philadephia is saluting Philadelphians who in mid-life or later, embarked on second careers that were radically different from their initial choices.
Sylvia Kauders is scheduled to share her story on November 10.
Sylvia was a
Philadelphia civil servant who has become a very successful film and television actress. She has appeared in major movies such as
Witness with Harrison Ford and
The Wrestler with Mickey Rourke. On television, she has appeared on
Seinfeld and the
Sopranos.
Sylvia is currently shooting not just one, but two movies in
New York City. Since there is always the possibility that she will be called to the set on November 10, a compelling back-up guest will be "waiting in the wings."
Sheila Weiler is a former teacher and legal secretary who has become a cabaret singer and an actress in musicals. She has sung at
Judy’s and
Danny’s Skyline Room in
New York City and on stage at the Walnut Street Theater here. Sheila received a scholarship to study at the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center in
New London, Connecticut.
This promises to be an entertaining and fascinating morning--whether you listen to
Sylvia or to
Sheila!
