Meredith Riley Stewart (Actress/Show Creator): Born and raised in Alabama, Meredith Riley Stewart adds Southern charm, along with big city sass, to all the projects she’s involved in.  After a successful crowd-funding campaign, she produced the first season of her original comedic web series, SOUTHERN DISH, which premiered online this spring (southerndish.tv).  She recently appeared as Margo Greyson on DEVIOUS MAIDS and also played the assistant to Jean Dujardin's Saurel in THE WOLF OF WALL STREET. After graduating from the University of Alabama with a double major in biology and dance, she performed professionally for eight seasons with Jeanne Ruddy Dance.  As an actor in NYC, she worked on BOARDWALK EMPIRE and in the theatre, playing a favorite role of "Shelby" in STEEL MAGNOLIAS opposite Tony and Emmy winners. Meredith is a dual citizen of Ireland and travels there often.  Meredith looks to expand her content creation resume by producing more projects, including AUTOCORRECTFU viral comedy video series, a second season for SOUTHERN DISH as well as PSAs for Women in Film, an organization of which Meredith is an executive member.  She is most interested in collaborating with filmmakers to create work that is grounded in reality, emotionally true and brings to life the subtle realities of the human condition.
