Bio
I am an experienced Actor (since the age of 16), Writer, Musician and Professional Instructor. During my artistic career I trained with a variety of notable award-winning talents and performed in the films “You Light Up My Life” and in “Perfect Gentleman,” with Ruth Gordon. I performed on stage in Los Angeles and in road companies playing both lead and supporting roles in everything from Shakespeare and classics like “Charley’s Aunt,” to musicals and stage reviews. I have appeared in commercials and print work for companies such as American and United Airlines. It is my desire to continue to pursue and refine my skills as an artist. I am currently a member of the Andy Goldberg Improv Comedy Workshop and am completing a novel. As a young man I sang and danced on television in teen-oriented Rock and Roll shows such as; “Shebang,” “Where The Action Is” and “Groovy” and produced Rock and Roll records under contract to White Whale Records as the lead singer for the band The Odyssey.
I am also a retired veteran Management Analyst having served in the City of Los Angeles Community Development Department for over three decades where among my many assignments I was the lead teacher/facilitator providing training and technical assistance to large and small groups. It is my desire to continue to grow as an artist and teach others what I’ve learned.
