Who is Patricia Tallman?
Who knew that playing with dolls could lead to a career in show biz?
Patricia is perhaps best known for her work in the 1990 cult classic “Night of The Living Dead” as Barbara, the beleaguered heroine. Some may argue she is best known for her role as Lyta Alexander in the Hugo Award winning series, Babylon 5.
Either way, she has been swept into a career that features horror and Science Fiction projects. She is less recognizable, but no less memorable, as the Horror Hag in Evil Dead III, Army of Darkness.
As a small person in the single digits, Patricia would play “Dark Shadows” and “Star Trek” with her Barbie dolls. She and her cousin Susan would create storylines and get lost in those worlds for hours.

Pat's other projects include starring in the sci-fi audio thriller series “Anne Manx”, starring her bestie Claudia Christian, playing the evil badass, Lt. Jean Richmond.
Since she was a very young girl, Pat has loved traveling. In between jobs, she took off for Europe with little more than a backpack, Passport and Eurail Pass. Filling up several passports, Pat has logged significant experience on the road and now is the time to share it with you!
Along with traveling and stunt experience, Pat has had the great good fortune to have studied with some amazing mentors for emotional, business and spiritual growth. Returning from Bali with a rough draft of her second book, Pat knew leading retreats was what she had to do.
Her favorite role is that of mother to her son, Julian.
