September Actors of the Month!

Nayab Hussain is a Pakistani-American actress based in New York, known for embodying roles that balance commanding authority with layered vulnerability. Trained in both stage and screen performance, Nayab gravitates toward characters who demand resilience, intelligence, and emotional depth—whether as a compassionate doctor, protective mama bear, or no-nonsense lawyer.

Recent credits include The Summer I Turned Pretty (Amazon Prime) and a recurring role in FX’s anthology series American Love Story, with festival recognition for performances in independent projects such as Fry-Roti: Rise of the Dough. A trailblazer in every role, Nayab brings quiet authority and a heartfelt presence that resonates with audiences and casting alike.

Off-screen, Nayab continues to work as a pharmacist and is the proud mother—and baseball coach—of her 7-year-old son. Balancing artistry with family life, she infuses her work with the same warmth, care, and dedication she brings to her loved ones and her community.

Brian D. Cohen is a true bi-coastal talent who grew up in the Bay Area, basking in the 90s glow of music, film, and performance. What started as childhood modeling and performing, turned into a lifelong drive to create — and eventually, a career that’s taken him from early dreams to real-world sets.

With more than 13 major Film & TV credits to his name, Brian’s recent work includes Netflix’s Tires, a supporting role in Lionsgate’s The Housemaid alongside Sydney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried, and a recurring role on the fan-favorite Lincoln Lawyer. Additionally, he just joined the cast of an indie film from writer/actor/director Jordan Firstman, adding another dynamic project to his growing list.

When Brian isn’t on set, he’s gaming, hiking, traveling, Disney-adulting (just for the record, WITH his kid ), and hosting game nights. But his favorite role of all? Being a husband and the proud dad of a bold, vivacious 3-year-old who keeps him on his toes every single day.
