Priscilla Wittman, sometimes known as Priscilla Wittmann, is am Mexican-American-German actress and music composer. Since her breakthrough into acting in the mid 1990's, she continues to work in both film and television in the USA and in Europe.
As of late, Priscilla can be seen in the mockumentary comedy Easy Digging (2024). Since July 27, 2023, she continues to appear throughout Germany and Europe in a supporting role in Lassie: A new Adventure (Lassie: Ein neues Abenteuer). In the German/Finnish family comedic drama Sweet Disaster (2021), she portrays the role of Josephine, which debuted in 2024 on the French/German television network ARTE, and ZDF (Germany). As a participant in the Playground Film Festival in Leuven, Belgium (2021), she performed live, interacting with the artistic film You have a future, but it looks a lot like your Past! Priscilla can also be seen as a Wedding Officiant Spy in the delightful comedy 36 Husbands (2019). Her performance as the older "Talli" in the psychological thriller 8 Remains (2018) was described by film critic Bobby LePire as "impressive, suggesting heartbreak and confusion with just a few lines of dialogue". In 55 Steps ( a/k/a Eleanor and Colette) (2017), she characterized the role of a serious nurse and had the chance to work closely alongside Hillary Swank, under the direction of the renowned Danish Academy Award-winning film and television director Bille August. From a grieving mother in the Indie film Edda Tudor (2019) to a somewhat comical vendor, known as the "Chicken Lady" in To be a Soldier (2018), Priscilla enjoys depicting a variety of emotions. She also makes a brief appearance in the popular faith and family film Providence (2016).
Priscilla completed her first CD in 2009, entitled Te Glorificare (I will Glorify your Name), where she sings a variety of her original Spanish Christian compositions. The initial tracks for the CD were recorded under the direction of the late world-renowned Mexican composer and singer, (her former father-in-law) Luis Demetrio (composer of Sway, Si Dios me Quita la Vida), and his son Luis Jr. She continues to actively work in music composition, and in 2019, she was contracted to arrange the Christmas orchestral selections for the Christmas greeting of the mayor of Duesseldorf, Germany.
She studied composition with the American classical composer Robert Xavier Rodriguez and voice with Barbara Chenault Law, a former student of Madame Paola Novikova (teacher of Nicolai Gedda and George London). A native English speaker, Priscilla also speaks fluent Spanish and German with a basic knowledge of Italian and Portuguese. She is now learning Swedish!
