Director Bio

Noel Hennessey A dancer of 10 years and lifelong singer, Noel is a natural and gifted performer. She sings in a Worship Band and in 2010 will sing the National Anthem at an NBA game in Phoenix. She also provided the narration for an award-winning film from the 2009 MLK Day Film Projet. Noel graduated from Colorado State University with a bachelor’s degree in Communication and a concentration in Media Studies. Although, Noel is an award-winning, “hobby” photographer, whose photos from travels abroad have earned top spots at art auctions; it wasn’t her “eye” that brought her to the Pan Left Collective. After months of working as a camp counselor, living with impoverished youth abroad and working with teens on Tucson’s south side, Noel decided to help the young voiceless find their voice. That decision led to her first production, AT RISK: in their own words.
