ABIGAIL ROSE SOLOMON has been acting on stage since she was eight.
She grew up playing some of the great male roles at her all-girls
school in Manhattan. She received her B.A. cum laude in
Theatre from Williams College in Williamstown, MA, which U.S.
News & World Report has repeatedly ranked the top college in the
nation. She also spent her Junior Year Abroad studying Shakespeare
in England. Upon graduating, she began her professional career in
The Bay Area.
When
it was time to return to home, Abigail worked with various
Off-Broadway and Off-Off Broadway companies, as well as regional
summer theatres. She went on to receive her MFA from the
NYU Graduate Acting Program (Tisch School of the Arts).
After the pleasure of working On-Camera with Sarah Jessica Parker
and the late, great Jerry Orbach, she decided to check out Los
Angeles. When she almost booked a job on THE PRACTICE her first
week visiting, she began to spend more time there. Abigail was
offered two episodes of NYPD BLUE without having to audition, and
played the recurring role of "Nurse Solly" on DAYS OF OUR LIVES,
named for the Solomon family nickname "Solly." Although she worked
with Brad & Angie on MR. & MRS. SMITH, she has no scoop. She
also worked with Joe Mantegna and Barbara Hershey on the indie film
CHILDLESS.
Abigail thought moving to L.A. would mean giving up the theatre, but
found otherwise. After working with various theatre companies in
Southern CA, she founded her own, Rosalind Productions, Inc.

In 2006, she produced and starred in the World Premiere of a play
she wrote, STAGES, which had an extended run and garnered a NAACP
Theatre Nomination. In 2006, she starred in and co-produced an
all-female cowboy version of Shakespeare's AS YOU LIKE IT, with Los
Angeles Women's Shakespeare Company. In 2008, she produced and
starred in a critically acclaimed, extended run of David Auburn's
Pulitzer Prize winning play, PROOF.

Since 2002, she has traveled the country performing THE THIN LINE, a
One-Woman Show written by Cathy Plourde. She has also performed her
own One-Woman show, THE WOMAN WHO HAD NOTHING BUT HER SUNDAY SUIT,
at short-play festivals all over the country. Abigail is on the
Advisory Board of The Vineyard Playhouse on Martha's Vineyard, and
is an Ovation Voter for LA Stage Alliance.
Abigail is now based back in New York, but continues to work on both
coasts. In addition to acting, and producing her own shows, she has
been working on the producing side of such Broadway shows as
CYRANO and ALL MY SONS.
