Stevie Anne Nemazee is a puppetry artist, designer, and playwright. In 2018, Stevie was honored to be an Emerging Artist at the National Puppetry Conference at The Eugene O'Neill Theater Center in Waterford, CT where she premiered her play, Herb the Beige. In January of 2019 she received the UNIMA USA international scholarship, awarding her the opportunity to travel to Prague to study puppetry.
In addition to live puppetry, Stevie works in stop-motion animation as an armaturist and puppet builder. She has worked on shows such as “Robot Chicken,” “Supermansion,” and “Tumble Leaf,” as well as the feature film, Wendell & Wild.
While at MacDowell, Stevie wrote a play for puppets, masks, and actors inspired by the uncanny/sexually violent works of surrealist photographer and doll-maker, Hans Bellmer, and organized as vignettes around the rules of archaic Victorian parlor games.
