Lisa Manale was born with a desire and passion for the arts. Since her childhood, she loved to take pictures with the now almost obsolete instamatic cameras. Her love of photography started around 8 years old. During this same time, she had her first 45 record of Aerosmith. Even though rock n roll would be become a huge part of her later years, she loved so many genres of music especially listening to her parents’ 50’s, 60’s and 70’s music which she still enjoys today. Like her father, she found herself drawing too in those earlier years. Lisa’s love of writing started in high school but did not turn to poetry until she was 20 years old which is the same year she began her journey in the music industry. Some of her work can be found on musician’s platforms where her lyrics have made their way to become published songs. Music paved the way into her interest of movie making too and went on to get her Associate Degree in 1996 for Film, Video and Audio. Recently, she has become a Stills Photographer for movie productions further utilizing her expertise and passion with photography along with her love of movies. Her writing increased over the years and she aspired to somehow share her work and made her dream come true and became an author with her first publication in 2019. Today, Lisa continues to write. She has several different book projects in the works, writes lyrics for musicians and their music and enjoys the personal hobby of creating picture videos for family and friends.
