Jamie Rose started acting professionally at the age of six. Her first role was as a kid go-go dancer on a Kool-Aid commercial.

She has starred in multiple Television Series and Films, including Falcon Crest (1981) and Lady Blue (1985) and the cult classic Chopper Chicks in Zombietown (1989) where Billy Bob Thornton had his first major film role playing her husband.

She has given workshops in university settings with actors for television, film and theater. She also consults with writers, helping them to potentiate readings and media appearances. Her seminars have been featured at the SAG Foundation and PEN America.

Jamie’s essays and articles have been published in magazines such as Coast and Actors Ink. She is the author of Shut Up and Dance! The Joy of Letting Go of the Lead (Tarcher/Penguin, 2011), a “dance of life” memoir exploring the relationship of masculine and feminine archetypes as embodied in the Argentine tango.

Informed by a lifetime as a working artist and teacher – enriched by her long-time studies with the brilliant psychiatrist and co-author of the international best-selling book, The Tools®, Dr. Phil Stutz – Jamie’s engaging, empathic gifts led to her current work as a certified Tools Life Coach.
