CRYSTAL HERNANDEZ
Who am I?
My name is Crystal Hernandez, I am a classically-trained actress, singer, dancer, and stuntwoman from Phoenix, AZ; formally trained in American Method Acting with Strasberg and Meisner techniques. I am excited by the challenges this craft provides and I aspire to bring depth and authenticity to every performance.
In my career I have had the privilege of tackling roles that present unique artistic challenges and demonstrated ample range in my work from the resilient mother on a quest to save her son as Marta in DUSTWUN (2020), a grieving daughter in search of answers as Leticia in The Blue Drum (2022), to fashion powerhouse and twin sisters Fiona and Fabiola in the romantic thriller Demise (2023).

DUSTWUN
2018
On the US/Mexico border, an undocumented mother’s quest to save her son relies on a troubled American Veteran, building a wall out of junk, whose duty is to keep her out.
The drive to protect our borders and preserve our national identity by keeping out the “other” has brought to bear essential questions about the soul of our nation. DUSTWUN is a fictional story based on real people and real stories told in the simplest way possible to elevate what binds us together as human beings, irrespective of metaphorical, or actual, borders.
