In this episode, Hilliard and guest co-hosts (actor/filmmaker) Shawn Carter Peterson and (actor/filmmaker) Iona Morris Jackson sat down with STACIE GREENWELL who plays the role of Detective Shawna D Lackner, one of the stars on the Amazon Prime hit series CROSS!

Stacie’s journey from the courtroom to the camera is a testament to following one's true passion.

She made a bold move to New York City, where she earned an M.F.A. in Acting at the Actors Studio Drama School.

Currently, Stacie plays the role of Detective Shawna De Lackner in Prime Video’s global crime thriller, Cross, which has been recognized with an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Drama!
