Yan-Kay Crystal Lowe is beloved around the world for her portrayal of Rita Haywith-Dorman in the Signed, Sealed, Delivered series and films, about the eclectic and dedicated staff of an “undeliverable letters” office. Yan-Kay was only 15 when she booked her first acting gig, and since then she's appeared in an array of roles in films like Snakes on a Plane and Insomnia, and television shows like Smallville, Supernatural, and Republic of Doyle. Along the way, she’s been a scream queen, battled displaced dinosaurs and generated reams of code as a series regular on Primeval New World, and appeared in a long, long list of Christmas movies, including Christmas at Dollywood. Yan-Kay has also helmed a number of profitable businesses, including a promotional modelling company, a burlesque troupe, an event-planning firm, and a Tim Burton-inspired restaurant-bar called Hyde – and she’s produced and directed numerous award-winning short films. It’s been a winding road to this particular moment in Yan-Kay Crystal Lowe’s life, and in this entertaining and deeply personal interview, she reflects on her remarkable journey, and also discusses why and how she’s taking back her name.
