Arlene Barshinger's arrival into the world was a momentous occasion that took place during the sweltering summer months of August 1971, a time when the sun shone brightly and the air was thick with humidity. It was within the borders of the state of Virginia, a place known for its picturesque landscapes and rich history, that Arlene's parents, both dedicated and hardworking members of the military, had been temporarily stationed, their duties and responsibilities requiring them to relocate to this new and unfamiliar environment.
Arlene, a multifaceted and dynamic individual, has consistently showcased an unwavering passion for creative expression throughout the trajectory of her life's journey. Her artistic odyssey began with a robust foundation in photography, which she first cultivated during her high school years by working as a photographer for her local newspaper and school yearbook, thereby laying the groundwork for a lifelong pursuit of artistic exploration and expression.
A pivotal moment in Arlene's life unfolded when her middle child, a ten-year-old son, demonstrated an extraordinary fascination with the art of acting and filmmaking. This pivotal event set in motion a series of circumstances, as she, accompanied by her son, sought out the guidance of a highly respected talent agent, the illustrious Beverly Brock. Brock's words of encouragement had a profound impact on Arlene, ultimately inspiring her to take the leap and pursue a career in acting, mirroring her son's ambitions. In a remarkable showcase of familial support, Arlene and her son signed with The Brock Agency, commencing a new chapter in their lives. However, it wasn't until the year 2012 that Arlene made the bold transition from behind-the-scenes work to on-screen acting, largely driven by her desire to support her son's burgeoning endeavors in the entertainment industry.
Arlene's illustrious career in the realm of entertainment reporting underwent a pivotal transformation in mid-2012, as she received an esteemed invitation to join a prestigious Blog Talk Radio show in the capacity of an entertainment reporter. This auspicious turn of events marked the inception of a new and exciting chapter in her professional trajectory, as she soon found herself entrusted with the responsibility of spearheading the launch of her very own show, aptly titled N the Queue. The show's meteoric rise to popularity was a resounding testament to Arlene's exceptional hosting prowess and her uncanny ability to forge a deep and meaningful connection with her audience. Just two weeks into its inaugural run, she made the shrewd decision to bring on board a co-host of great renown, Mark A Johnston, and the show continued to thrive and flourish under the collaborative efforts of this dynamic duo.
Arlene's professional journey underwent a profound metamorphosis when she was prominently showcased in the April 26th, 2013 edition of People Magazine's Most Beautiful issue, having been chosen as a finalist in a nationwide search for natural beauties at every age, a distinction that precipitously propelled her modeling career into the limelight, thereby catapulting her to a new level of prominence and recognition within the industry.
In the year 2016, a pivotal moment in Arlene's creative journey unfolded as she joined forces with Redcape Cinema, a production company based in the culturally rich and storied city of Burbank, California, which was founded by the astute and innovative entrepreneur Ron Santiano. This strategic partnership marked the inception of a remarkably fruitful collaboration that would yield a multitude of projects in the years to come.
Concurrently, Arlene also embarked on a collaborative venture with MegaReel Entertainment, a production company owned by the multifaceted and dedicated Shawnda Christiansen. Together, they worked with unwavering dedication on several projects, one of which was the film Six Feet of Separation, which was shot during the unprecedented and challenging 2020 novel coronavirus pandemic.
