Chris studied acting in NYC with Kevin O'Connor & Bill Esper; in Boston with Tom Celli, Ted Kazanoff, Marc Clopton & Peter Berkrot; and in Austin with Mona Lee, Barry Pineo, Paula Russell, Carol Hickey, Laurel Vouvray & Stella Adler-- Ms Adler courtesy of the Harry Ransom Center! Chris was fortunate to have a summer stock theatre in his hometown, the Hampton Playhouse, where he stayed out of trouble during high school summers by working as an apprentice. Now sadly 'Playhouse Drive', it lives on in memory as a reminder of the beginning of a great adventure. Thank you John & Alfred!
