INANNA aka Marcella-Lentz Pope

 

Marcella, our youngest priestess, has been a professional actor for many years. She is a graduate of the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts.  Other training includes Viewpoints/Suzuki with Anthony Byrnes, Voice-Over Workshops with Sharon Mack, and the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London, a Shakespeare Intensive.  Her theater credits include The Cherry Orchard, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and The Wizard of Oz.  Her film credits include, Punch-Drunk Love, A Host of Trouble, and Kids in America.  She has co-starred on various television shows, such as NCIS, Boston Legal, The O’Keefe’s, and Malcolm in the Middle.  Awards encompass 1st Place in the 2005 and 2006 DTASC Shakespeare Competition / monologue, 1st Place 2005 RoleAbout / Cold Reading, 1st Place 2005 RoleAbout / Classical Monologue, and was the Silver Medalist ROP Outstanding Student in TV/Film. 

 

Marcella has been fortunate to have grown up with a goddess teacher, her mother Pat Lentz. She continues her goddess studies with Xia, Director of Temple of the Goddess. She believes her career working in the media will enable her to be a voice of the goddess and the importance of remembering the divine feminine. Her strength of will, her dedication, her passion is beautiful to behold, especially in a young adult.  When she dances at Temple of the Goddess rituals, the divine swirls around her, through her, and out to those watching her.  She sincerely hopes that by re-introducing the Goddess, she can do her part in changing society for the better.
