Hello everyone! My name is Tara Mann and I am a writer for Lifestyle, Entertainment, and Hidden Gems here at 60 Seconds! I am majoring in creative writing and minoring in computer science at Chapman University. I absolutely love reading and writing (as you could probably guess) and I do not know who I would be without books.

Fun facts!

  1. I have an identical twin sister.
  2. I am a cat person (but I still love dogs too).
  3. My favorite book series are Percy Jackson and Harry Potter (Ravenclaw, obviously).
  4. I have a passion for performing on stage in live musical theatre productions (as well as working backstage).
  5. I have been tap dancing for almost five years.
  6. I play piano and sing (soprano).
  7. I love baking and cooking.
  8. I am a vegetarian.
  9. I love to knit.
  10. I am from Monterey, CA (yes, I have watched Big Little Lies, no, we are not all rich).
  11. My dream job is a successful young adult author.
  12. My dream role is Christine Daae from Phantom of the Opera.
  13. So far I am fluent in the coding languages Python, Java, and C#.

Most of my favorite memories come from various shows I have participated in. There is nothing like the thrill of performing for a live audience and knowing that the show is different every single time. The bond we make as a cast is incomparable and I never want to stop performing.

Thanks for taking the time to get to know me! Keep pursuing the things that make you happy!
