40 years acting experience. I've done everything from VO work to International released on-camera work commercials where I am the lead actor. Last project was hotels dot com. I have competently done lead roles and supporting lead roles in film and theater. My last feature film role was in "Deceit" a main character, filmed late 2011. I have been a member of SAG and AFTRA and am currently a member of Australia’s MEAA. In a nutshell I get the job done and am considered a reliable actor. I do several dialects extremely well. I am a graduate of The New York Academy of Dramatic Arts and have completed several workshops. As 2IC at Central Casting in Sydney, Australia I taught classes on "what's required of an actor when on set". I have a great relationship with all the major casting agents. I'm good at what I do. A talent that you can TRUST to know his lines and perform them to or above your expectations.
