It’s a privilege to be an Actor. As an Actor, we get to, in this one lifetime the opportunity to experience all these mini lifetimes through the characters we portray. Artist’s are one of the most important ingredients in making a society function. We get to entertain and bring joy to people’s lives by entertaining […]

I love New York. I was born in the Bronx and grew up in Los Angeles. I graduated in 11th grade at 17 and went into the Navy for a couple of years and got out before I turned 20. I couldn’t wait to begin pursuing my life’s passion of becoming an Actor. A dream […]

This quote from my quote book, To Be An Actor, is from American composer, Phillip Glass, “The first problem that an Artist has to face is how to survive.” My favorite Artist is Vincent Van Gogh, and I thought you had to suffer, that you had to struggle as he did, in order to be […]

I can see a change in my life since I stopped saying no. I see now that a lot of the no’s in my life came because I was afraid to fail. To look foolish. Now I say Yes, unless I am sure that I have nothing to learn from it. I am thinking more […]

I am finding more and more that young actors don’t know how to find material to work on. I believe if you are an American actor you have to know what’s American and work on Williams, Miller, O’Neill, Odets, Shanley, Mamet, Simon, Beth Henley & August Wilson. These are amazing writers that write about the […]

There is no reason to not be working as an actor if that is your passion. There are reasons to go broke doing it, but if you love it, you have to find a way to work. When I moved to Los Angeles from New York, I thought that was going to be the next […]

I don’t like them. I know that there are many young actors that swear by them, even though they have yet to secure work from one. Once upon a time, many casting directors took pride in discovering new talent and would go out to see the actor applying their craft on stage. For many young […]

I was lucky to be a part of the Artist Theatre Group. It is a place for a creational growth, a safe environment where you can explore the craft of acting. Anthony’s teachings have helped me dive deeper into my work, and I’ve been learning something new every class. I cannot express the gratitude for […]
