Hi, I'm Grasie Mercedes

I'm an actress, writer, and an artist,

and I'm going to tell you

Un Chín about me

Boy, that's pie.

Oh, that's for me, thank you.

So this is where you work.

I thought this was a

place you make copies,

what's with all the donuts?

It's called Copy and Donuts.

It's a pun on coffee and donuts.

I've been acting for 15 years,

and I got my first big break

as a series regular

on the NBC comedy Grand Crew

Well, that's good.

it really is

No, it's not.

I'm gonna get grilled

by the grill master.

Oh no, sorry, I

meant the story is good.

You're definitely screwed.

I'm also a writer and

worked as a staff writer

on the NBC comedy Perfect Harmony.

And now I'm playing with

visual arts and doing collage.

My advice to any artist,

especially if you're an actor,

is to make your own stuff.

Don't sit around

waiting for a phone call,

make your own short film,

make your own art.

Un Chín to me is community and culture,

connecting with my community and

sharing my culture.
