The greatest love of Sarah's life is money and next to that is food but, very closely following that is producing the Inland Empire's 48 Hour Film Project. Besides being ravishingly thin and sexy, Sarah is also a supremely talented comedian and actress who should be working with directors the likes of Scorcese, Spielberg or Nolan. Unfortunately, restraining orders being what they are, she currently bides her time making commercials and appearing on TV shows like HBO's "True Blood". She has starred in the highly acclaimed indie films "Young, Single and Angry" and "Karl Rove, I Love You" starring Alec Baldwin. If you are still on the fence about her, consider that she attended drama school in England and once had Alfred Molina as an acting teacher...now you know for a fact that she is REALLY good. If you would like to make a donation of chocolate, powdered sugar or margarine to Sarah, please visit her website at http://www.sarahblevins.com
