Actress
Sonia Satra’s natural charm and endearing persona have often been equated with her innate ability to examine the entire universe with a highly sustained imagination. But it's definitively her animated, adventurous nature, that has been quite a worthy challenge for the uncommon irony that is her life. In July of 1993,
Satra auditioned for the part of Lucy Cooper on 'Guiding Light'. Casting director Betty Rae, who is also credited with discovering actress Meg Ryan, was more than just a bit impressed by
Satra’s effervescent persona. In September of 1993, Satra officially joined the critically acclaimed cast of Guiding Light. Some of
Satra’s numerous other television credits include: ‘Dark Justice’, ‘Brand New Life’, ‘Trial By Jury’, ‘Bonanza, Legends of The Ponderosa’, ‘Bonanza, Under Attack’, and ‘Baywatch’. However, as the actress herself will candidly admit, working in film is her eminent passion.
Satra has avidly explored several film productions and possesses an innate understanding of the entire creative process. When
Satra isn’t working, she enjoys skydiving, yoga, horseback riding, painting, listening to cool blues guitarists, and mountain climbing. She’s actually climbed the two highest mountains in Norway, and Mount Whitney, the highest mountain in the continental United States.
Satra is also an ardent boxing enthusiast. She’s a regular at Gleason’s World Famous Boxing Gym in Brooklyn, New York.
Satra’s enthusiasm for living life to the absolute edge is contagious. She is
always rather modest when talking about her many accomplishments. The fervently energetic actress prefers to talk more about what she has yet to accomplish.
"Life is a series of realizations and endless possibilities, I want to reach a level in which I’m no longer anticipating the arrival of the next colossal wave, I’m just cleverly riding it in."
