ER Nurse Gets By With a Little Help From Her Co-Stars
HOLLYWOOD (Wireless Flash) Like many actors, ER nurse Lily Mariye wants to direct. And shes succeeded with a little help from her co-stars. Mariye, who has played Nurse Lily Jarvik since the shows first season, recently completed her first directing gig a short film titled The Shangra-La Cafe that she also wrote and co-produced. The film is currently making its big debut on PBS stations around the country, and Mariye says shes indebted to recently departed co-star Anthony Edwards, who not only bankrolled part of the production, but gave her a priceless piece of advice. Mariye says Edwards told her: Whenever someone asks you a question on the set, answer it. You have to look confident so theyll trust in you. Now, Mariye wants to make a feature version of her film and hopes the exposure on PBS raises interest.
