In 1998, Bass was cast as a body double for Regina King in the movie "Enemy of the State" starring Will Smith, and as a result, she successfully earned her Screen Actors Guild membership.

Bass founded Crystal Clear Publications. She wrote and published her first critically acclaimed novel, "Dark Clouds: A Charm City Family's Struggle," chronicling the life of four siblings, their relationship with their mother, and the many incidents that took place during her childhood.

Overcoming every obstacle, circumstance and situation in her life designed to make her quit, Bass has used them as stepping stones toward a successful triumphant end. She resides in Baltimore with her family.
