About Sonia Iris Lozada
Fostering truth and beauty in all its various modes—through riveting determination on stage and screen, through harmony of perspectives in podcasts, through deft eloquence of words on the poetic page—Sonia Iris Lozada inspires, dreams, fascinates, cracks a smile, and spurs the moment with verse and wit.
Here we have an actor with an eye toward the real in the unreal, an actor who accentuates the subtlety of life in her various roles. With numerous acting credits across a range of genres, Sonia enlivens characters out of scripts into full-bodied beings and lures in the viewer at the same instant. Her roots dig deep through her parents to Puerto Rico and spread to the streets of Chicago where she was born. She brings this mixture of culture into a mixture of styles, humor with drama, a smile with a keen gaze, and steady timing in works such as Worlds Apart, season two of Bosch Legacy, the award-winning short Love in Time of Pandemic, Out of the Wild, and Expired. Her dynamism is electric.
Sonia lives the many lives of a dreamer: out of one’s self-imposed limits, she discerns potential. Through her assorted poetry collections—Inspire me Series: Book 1 & 2 (2022), Inspire Me: Perception (2019), Follow Akashic Dreaming Through Time (2019), and Inspire Me: Raw (2017) Sonia weaves grace from loss, honesty from love, delicacy from the torn fabric of memory, and a persevering joy in the face of doubts. Her poems convey a broad spectrum of life’s yearnings. Yet the lilt of her voice never lapses: from the cascading effect of Spanish alongside English to the perceptive lessons of one’s soul in concert with one’s living, these poems dance to the tune of life’s multi-layered vibrations and never miss a step. Her forthcoming poetry collection, the triumphant third in the series, will bring the raw past and the perceptive eye toward a new vision: Inspire Me: Awakening Dreams.
After accomplishing so much in her diverse expressions of art, Sonia sought to cultivate the expressions of others in an exploratory mode. Through her Poetic Resurrection Podcast she speaks to those who have learned life’s hard lessons through experience, art, and teaching. These lessons become conversations of strength and acceptance, of seeing the long-term effects of beliefs on behaviors (Season 1), of essence in writing and living (Season 2), of the spectrum of life’s plentiful hues (Season 3), of self-actualization (Season 4), and of perseverance (Season 5). These lessons are not singular, certain, or prescribed; these are frames of thinking and thus handholds of living. In these podcasts you will find laughter and tears, hopes and doubts, ideals and realities—but always sustaining, always living, always a current of inward focus and outward breathing. These conversations are succor for life’s pains, and you will hear Sonia smile, again and again, through art, through life, through the prosodic music of words.
