Notes

Miriama Smith is a celebrated New Zealand actress of Māori and European descent. Her breakout role was in the cult fantasy classic XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS, and since then she has accumulated over 30 years of experience in a diverse range of on-screen roles. At home in New Zealand, Miriama has recently played the lead in comedy series RULE OF MUM, a key supporting role in historical feature drama KA WHAWHAI TONU MĀTOU, and a guest role in Irish/NZ co-production THE GONE. Previously, Miriama was well-known to Kiwi audiences for her leading role as ruthless CEO "Brady Truebridge" in two seasons of FILTHY RICH, and in 2012 Miriama received the award for Best Supporting Actress at the NZ Film & Television Awards for her "chillingly remarkable" portrayal of Delwyn Keefe, the widow of Napier gunman Jan Molennaar, in feature film SIEGE. In Australia, Miriama recently starred as headstrong care worker 'Brandi' in SBS comedy-drama LATECOMERS. She is also known internationally for AMC Shudder series THE DEAD LANDS; action-adventure film LOVE AND MONSTERS (Paramount Players); and Australian crime drama HARROW. Alongside her prolific acting career, Miriama is a trained yoga teacher and independent registered marriage celebrant. She lives in Waihi Beach in New Zealand, and when she's not filming or travelling, cherishes time spent with her son and dog.
