About ~ Diane Donato
Actress
My first experience as a business owner was in 1980 as an independent Cosmetic Consultant with Aloe Charm cosmetics. It is no longer in business.
I founded Clothes Encounters Image Consulting in 1987. And soon after, I became affiliated with Karla Jordan Kollections as an independent sales rep so that I could purchase their fabulous jewelry and sell it in Clothes Encounters.
During that time, I met numerous image consultants from across the country and I took all of their classes.
Upon retirement from the State of CT, I wrote my book “Clothes Encounters of the Divine Kind”, Where Image Reflects the Truth.
In 2015 for weather and financial reasons I moved to Tucson, Arizona. In 2017 or 2018 I met some film people in Arizona and started taking acting classes and have been in several films here in Tucson.
These are my film projects – “Still Lively”, “Kitbash”, “Gossip Queens of Tucson”, Shakespeare Plays, “once upon a time in Tombstone”, “Ghost Town Lost”, lead role in the short film “Witchery”, “Single Minded” (which I wrote and starred in), “In Terror” as a featured extra and a Desert Diamond Commercial.

About Zach Rhein:
Zachary or Zach for most people is originally from Spokane, Washington and developed a love of the arts at an early age. One of my earliest experiences making movies was helping on a music video a friend.
I then moved down to Tucson, AZ where I continued my love of the arts and joined the theater department. While I didn’t pursue acting I rediscovered my love of filmmaking and am ready to become the local mogul.
While I may not have decades of experience handling a full fledge business, I make up for it in my drive and determination and am willing to learn from the school of hard knocks.
My current business is In Flight Productions, a local film production company ready to make high quality movies of all genres that give people a chance to see themselves in the movie.
