Dixie Seatle is a Canadian actress and faculty member in the Acting for Film and Television program at Humber College's School of Creative and Performing Arts in Toronto, Ontario.[1] Her first film credit was a supporting role in the 1978 production of A Gift to Last.[2] Seatle won Gemini Awards for her work on the series Adderly and Paradise Falls[3]

She is a graduate of Dawson College and the National Theatre School in Montreal.[1] She has also taught at the Stratford Festival, the Toronto Centre for the Arts, George Brown College, and Earl Haig Secondary School.

In an op-ed published in September 2014, in The Globe and Mail, triggered by observing a farmer sending a cow to the slaughterhouse, due to its record of miscarriages, Seatle wrote about bonding with the cow over the loss of an offspring, because she too had lost a child.[4]

I had been talking to her, letting her know I understood, in some desperate attempt to bridge the human/cow gap and, I confess, some misguided need to compensate for her detached cow friends.
