Lucy Walsh

Today on The Neil Haley Show, Neil "The Media Giant" Haley and
co-host Lefty of Legacy Filmmakers interview Lucy Walsh.





Lucy Walsh, an accomplished American artist, has garnered
recognition as an actress, writer, producer, classical pianist,
singer and songwriter. Notable for her theatrical performances,
Lucy has been nominated for a Broadway World Award for Best
Actress in Shakespeare's 'The Tempest ' and has received
an NAACP Theater award for Best
Director for ‘Much Ado About Nothing’. Additionally, she has made
appearances across various TV Shows such as Curb
Your
Enthusiasm, NCIS,
and Criminal Minds. On the
big screen, Lucy starred in Gary Marshall’s
star-studded Mother's Day which additionally featured
her original song “Winter Coat” on the film’s
soundtrack. She has also composed the original musical score
for the film Normal, which is now receiving accolades in
film festivals and has toured internationally as a music artist,
most recently with Maroon 5. 


Her published book 'Remember Me As
Human' portrays the story of the final
conversation between an inquisitive young woman named
Lucy and her unforgettable ninety-seven-year-old Grandmother
Wanda, shortly before Wanda’s death. The story retells the love
shared between Wanda and Lucy’s Grandfather Dale
Boyer. During their three-day nursing home interview, what
began for Lucy as finding out more about her grandparent’s
WWII love letters, becomes a much deeper journey of hard-to-ask
questions and even harder-to-believe answers than
Lucy could’ve ever imagined. It is a journey into her
grandmother’s offbeat world and her ancestors’ tumultuous
psyches, to the very vortex of her own self-discovery. 


As talented as her musician father, Walsh has performed
the National Anthem at Dodger Stadium, for
President Bill Clinton, Tiger Woods, and LA Mayor Eric
Garcetti. Her Roy Orbison cover is included on his Under the
Covers album and was seen in Billy Bob Thornton's musical film
project And Then We Drove. Currently working on a
screenplay based on the letters her grandparents exchanged during
World War II, Walsh divides her time between New York and England
with her husband, William Sweeny, and their two cats, Gilbert and
Jessica Daisy Bing Bings.
