Tina Keeper is an accomplished Cree actress who plays RCMP constable Michelle Kenidi on the popular and critically acclaimed CBC television series "North Of 60".
In Tina Keeper's own words, her character Michelle "is very proud, very competent." She also struggles however, as a First Nations officer living and working in her home town, with the pressures of her community, and her duty to the RCMP.
Tina Keeper has been well rewarded for her acting work, with three Gemini Award nominations for her performance as Michelle and in 1997 a Gemini for Best Actress in a continuing television series.
In 1998 Tina Keeper won the American Indian Film Festival award for Best Actress, again for her role as Michelle Kenidi, but this time in the North of 60 based movie, In The Blue Ground.
In addition to these acting accomplishments, Tina Keeper is the hostess of the Manitoba Television Network's "The Sharing Circle," and the Woman's Television Network's "Hot Topics."
Keeper has also directed documentary films for the National Film Board.
Tina Keeper was born in Northern Manitoba, and moved to Winnipeg with her family when she was four years old.
Tina's first experience with theatre was in 1982 when she was recruited by her sister to help out with the wardrobe of a First Nations theatre group.
Out of a love of acting, Tina Keeper went on to obtain a double major degree at the University of Winnipeg in both theatre and history.
Although she appeared in two short films before acting in North of 60, Tina admits that as a university student, she never planned on a career as an actress.
Keeper was expecting to continue her education with a masters degree in history, or in education, when her friend, Jordan Wheeler, encouraged her to audition for a part in North of 60.
To Tina Keeper's surprise, she got the part and in her own words, "accidentally" became an actress!
