For nearly 30 years, Marty has worked as a location casting director, casting hundreds of actors for critically acclaimed movies and television series, as well commercials. Her resume includes work on the Academy Award-winning films, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Mo. and The Cider House Rules. Marty has had the privilege of working alongside acclaimed directors Clint Eastwood, Lasse Halstrom, Robert Redford, Robert Zemeckis, and Sean Penn; and actors like Frances McDormand, Denzel Washington, Julia Roberts, Robert DuVall, Matt Damon, and Sandra Bullock.

 In 2009, Marty turned her attention to television, as the Atlanta Casting Director for the CW’s runaway hit series, The Vampire Diaries and its smash spinoff, The Originals, casting speaking roles in 159 episodes across both shows.

What I’ve learned, working on films with actors from age 5 to 85, is that talented performers from every walk of life can be found in the most unexpected places. The best casting directors are those who keep an open mind and are unafraid to look for talent everywhere.”

While Marty casts a variety of roles for different types of projects, she specializes in finding talented children. In films like The Last Airbender, Chocolat, The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood, and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Marty held local, national, and international searches looking for undiscovered child actors. “Kids are natural pretenders,” she says. “Tapping into their sense of play and imagination can inspire even an inexperienced child actor to perform like a pro.”

Marty is also available by appointment for personal coaching with actors of all ages. Please send her an email via her contact page for more information.
