Her journey in performing arts began at Dorothy Moses Alexander’s Atlanta Ballet’s Centre for Dance Education in Georgia where she studied modern dance with Virginia Rich Barnett of the Rich’s department store chain; and advanced training under such notable ballet masters: Jean-Pierre Bonnefoux, Fernand Nault, Nicolas Pacana, Pavel Rotaru, Edward Villella, and Stanley Zompakos.

Some of the notable ballerinas Ann performed with were Shawn Black, Caroline Cavallo, Isabel Kimmel, Irena Pasaric and Julianne Spratlin.

With federal grants and merit scholarships based on GPA and test scores, never any student loans, besides Howard Community College, she first enrolled as an Acting major at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Manhattan for one semester under instructor Jen Jones; and later English literature courses at University of California Los Angeles under instructors Charles Lynn Batten and Carolyn Chiappelli, then attending Glendale Community College, where besides jazz dance under teacher James Kolb, her English Literature professor Nancy Nevins, the lead vocalist of Sweetwater American rock band that opened the 1969 Woodstock festival in New York and famous for the song "Motherless Child," inspired Ann to cover her own version of Motherless Child (2016 music video) starring Vincent Price.

Among the short TV programs, music videos and commercials Ann acts in include the SpaceWoman and Super CRAZY Fan series for which she is the creator and a novelization is in the works for SpaceWoman to accompany the books (Cowgirls & Indians, Birdwatcher, Gotham Kitty, The Lonely Vampire, Never-DEAD) she’s already written. Consequently, Ann's status grew, an unexpected result from her humble beginnings with small roles on six episodes of the CBS TV series Win, Lose or Draw (1988), and even background extra roles that she rarely mentions in Goodfellas (1990) Warner Bros film; Talking Heads Blind music video (1988); and with actress friends Heather Rose Dominic and Judy Calem in Clear By Design (1988) topical solution commercial starring Lara Jill Miller.
