Maeve Mollaghan

Maeve Mollaghan (pronounced molla-hin) is a Chicago-based actor, writer, and arts educator born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. She is a recent graduate of The Theatre School at DePaul University with degrees in BFA acting and English, and an alumna of LaGuardia High School’s drama program, where she received training in Meisner and Stanislavsky techniques. She values grit and humor in her work and has a passion for heightened text. Outside of acting, she loves traveling, thinks of herself as a great cook, and is very fond of children and animals—especially the weird ones. Favorite theatre credits include You On the Moors Now (Jane Eyre), The Moors (Agatha), and The Maids (Claire; see photo). She recently made her network television debut as a co-star on Chicago Fire (NBC).

As an arts educator, Maeve has worked with young theatre artists every summer since she turned 16. Most notably, she served as the co-artistic director of Pine Lake Performing Arts Camp in Westchester, NY, where she directed youth productions of 13! The Musical, The Addams Family, and more. Last summer, she co-directed Pippin.
