ABOUT EILEEN:

Eileen is a native of New York City where her love for the theater was planted and sown. While still in high school, her family moved to California. She auditioned for San Francisco's School of the Arts and was accepted into the vocal, dance, and acting specialties. In making the difficult decision to choose just one concentration, she finally settled on Acting by virtue of its audition being the most challenging for her. She then received her BFA in Acting from Boston University's School of Theater Arts and reestablished herself in New York where she continues to perform as well as write. Eileen is a founding member of Jaradoa Theater, a company which seeks to create great theater in an environment where artists thrive, as well as serve through the community through performance-based outreach and partnerships with relief organizations.
She lives in Manhattan with her cat, Oscar.

"Rivera's performance is assured and enticing, and despite her characters' psychoses
she still manages to draw the audience in."
