- Writer
Constance Zaytoun is a New York-based actor, writer, and producer, best known for the role of Dr. Norton (psychiatrist), in the Hulu drama, "Saint X."
Zaytoun grew up in North Carolina as second-generation Lebanese-American, the youngest of nine children. She has degrees from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, NYU, and CUNY Graduate Center, where she earned her PhD in Theatre Studies. She is also a certified associate teacher of Fitzmaurice Voicework®.
To gather material for her dissertation on the origins of feminist performance, Zaytoun interviewed visual and theatre artists over a home-cooked meal. The experience of talking with artists and cooking for them ultimately became the basis for "Constance Cooks," the award-winning culinary comedy series she created with her spouse, Marc Weitz. Marylouise Burke plays her character's academic mentor, and Isiah Whitlock, Jr., plays himself as the artist she is tracking down for an interview.
During the SAG/AFTRA strike in 2023, Zaytoun starred as Alex, in the Off-Broadway world premiere of "Sex Work/Sex Play," by Caytha Jentis. "Zaytoun invests Alex with a relatable mix of wry world weariness, resolve and poor impulse control." - Thinking Theater NYC
