Dear Sir,

It is from Mr. Willie A. Salazar who assists you as technical director that I came to know that you are in search of a lead actress and I wish to express my interest in this opportunity.

After completing my bachelors in fine arts; I joined New York Film Academy to sharpen my acting skills. I have been fascinated with acting right from my childhood. To pursue this dream and career I started with theater and now I have two ads and a film named the 'Polorus Ureka' to my credit. The film, in which I played a lead role, has been well appreciated by the audience and critics alike. I was also awarded with the Best Debut female award for the year 2010 (critics' choice) for this movie. It would be an honor for me to work with your well esteemed films company. I possess a pleasant personality and good verbal skills. With a two months training program in dancing and self grooming my acting skills and personality have further enhanced and I assure you that you would not regret your decision to have me as a lead actress in your film. So, hope to have a personal contact soon.

Look forward to your positive reply for the same.

Thank you,

Yours,

Martha R. Black
