A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Birthplace:
Calgary, Alberta, Canada
Born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Emily Klassen began performing at a very young age, in every talent show, play and musical she could find. She discovered a passion for classical music as a teenager and went on to develop her talents as a professional soprano, specializing in 17th and 18th Century music. In this capacity, she has performed with companies across North America and Europe. Emily is also a grant recipient of the Canada Council of the Arts for her work in Baroque Opera. Since moving to Toronto, Emily has also appeared in several notable on-screen productions, including the NBC series Hannibal (2013), where she performed an excerpt of Handel's PiangerĂ² la sorte mia (an aria in his opera 'Julius Caesar in Egypt'), the CBC series Murdoch Mysteries (2008), the CTV series Flashpoint (2008), and the Lifetime Network series Angela's Eyes (2006).

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
