Patricia Zentilli is a versatile Canadian performer who has worked in film, television and theatre across Canada. Born in Kingston, Ontario but raised in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Patricia was bitten by the acting bug in Grade Six when she was cast as "Dorothy" in her school's production of ''The Wizard of Oz''.

After graduating from high school, Patricia lived in Togo - a small country in West Africa - as part of a Canada World Youth programme. Upon her return to Canada, Patricia earned a B.A. in theatre at Dalhousie University in Halifax and then did further studies with "Shakespeare and Company" in Bennington, Vermont. Coming home to Nova Scotia, Patricia was cast in a number of productions with Neptune Theatre in roles that included "Shy Girl" in ''Sincerely, A Friend'', "Frankie" in ''The Member of the Wedding'' with Jackie Richardson "Marty" in ''Grease'', "Ophelia" in ''Hamlet'', "Geraldine" in ''What the Butler Saw'' and "Curley's Wife" in ''Of Mice and Men''. In 1999 Patricia landed a principal role in the successful Canadian film ''New Waterford Girl'', which went on to win awards at the Toronto International Film Festival.
