J.D. Bose

Joslyn D. Bose is a multidisciplinary artist with over two decades of experience in a variety of mediums including - but not limited to - acting, music, visual art, and writing. She is a first-generation college graduate with a Magna Cum Laude Bachelor’s degree in art focused in oil painting and photography/photo editing.

Joslyn began her training in the arts at a young age in various academic programs. She participated in school and collegiate choirs since first grade, sang in ten different languages, and studied Japanese both privately and academically. In high school she sang in ensemble for two years, studied the martial arts system of Kenpo for two years, wrote for the student paper entertainment column, and performed leading roles in two school theatre productions.

From high school through college, she performed lead and harmony vocals - including several solos and duets - both academically and in multiple nonprofit community music groups for nine years. These live-streamed performances required performing on stage for up to a hundred people, collaborating with band mates on vocal arrangements, managing IEMs and personal audio mixes, and singing with in-ear instrument and click tracks. During this time, she completed introductory training in multiple movement disciplines via university and private classes including modern and contemporary dance, swing dance, and Tai Chi. She also performed in a collegiate talent show in her freshman year and played a principal role in a student indie film production in her sophomore year.

After graduating college, Joslyn dedicated herself to character study, music, voice work, acting, and creative writing through multiple independent projects such as songwriting, performing, solo and collaborative fiction, tabletop role-playing games, and self publication. Since age thirteen she has written over forty songs and plans to record and release them independently.

In 2023, an excerpt from one of her creative writing projects was chosen for publication in a collegiate student-run serial. That same year she released an original ttrpg system called DICER.P.G. and created the book cover design, custom fonts, art and illustrations, game mechanics, and all content within (including editing and publishing). Beta 2.0 was released the following year, and DICER.P.G. is continuing to be refined to this day (with beta 3.0 currently in development) for a planned print edition upon completion of testing. Additionally, she is compiling and editing an anthology of her academic essays for future self publication, while researching and drafting a book series.

In 2026, Joslyn performed as seven male supporting roles and provided wardrobe assistance in the all-women readers theatre production of “A Piece of My Heart” by the Pull-Tight Players Theatre. Concurrently, she studied improvisational acting and the speak-singing technique in Nashville. She then attended the Yat Malmgren/Laban LA course, the NYC Scene Study, and the London 4-week intensive with the Giles Foreman Centre for Acting taught by Giles Foreman. She is currently performing paid session voice work for independent music projects while training online with the Cohen Acting Studio led by Robyn Cohen.

Joslyn has been accepted into the Director-Actor two year program at the Giles Foreman Centre for Acting in London, which will begin late September 2026.
