What Some Cool People Have Said About Me

“The first real star of the new season. A wild subversive talent who in a brief few seconds displays a dazzling combination of Judy Holliday dizziness and Jennifer Jason Leigh madcap intensity.”

Ron Rosenbaum - New York Observer

“Though Spybey plays dumb on screen, it’s clear to a keen observer that she’s a bright banana in real life. In Six Feet Under, Spybey took a role that could have been a one-dimensional cliche - a relentlessly chirpy party planner, pathetically clueless in her dogged pursuit of the closeted David Fisher - and made it compelling and unpredictable, culminating in a shrieking unhinged freak-out over her aunt’s funeral.”

Tara Ariano & Adam Sternbergh - FameTracker

“Dina Spybey has charm to spare.”

Ben Brantley - New York Times Review Don Juan in Chicago

“Dina makes me smile. Her presence perks up whatever she’s in, and she always reminds me fondly of those great character actresses of the classic era - women you could always count on to deliver a great scene, no matter what the quality of the film. Eve Arden comes to mind, even though they bear no similarity to each other, except for being hilarious. She’s gold, and I’ll watch her in anything.”

Josh Olson - Oscar Nominated Screenwriter, A History of Violence

“If I were pressed to describe Dina I would say that she reminds me most of the late Judy Holiday. She has the same wonderful comic gift as well as a touching depth and vulnerability.”

William Esper, Renowned NYC Acting Teacher

“Dina’s performance as Darlene in Balm In Gilead fully demonstrated her maturity and artistry. Dina perfectly captured Darlene’s vulnerability, humor, innocence and foolishness. Her twenty minute monologue proved to be spellbinding theatre. Many actresses might shy away from strong choices. Dina relishes them.”

Ed Stern, former Artistic Director Cincinnati Playhouse
