================
It's been a great year! :)
================ - Other non-acting related work, hobbies or charities (not skills) in which this actor is involved (1 or 2 word descriptions):
- I was working for Boston Duck Tours as a driver/captain! Nothing like fighting downtown rush hour Boston traffic in WWII surplus :) We got to choose our own character to give the history tour, so I wanted someone from Boston, instantly recognizable, and from the 1940's since we were cruising around in a WWII vehicle. So I did a spoof of JFK during WWII, wearing a period Navy uniform, and talking in the Kennedy accent. My character was "Lt. John F. Kenneduck." And YOU are aboard PT 409. (She's real fine, my 4 oh 9!) The vehicle itself became my moving stage, five performances a day, hour and a half each, 4 or 5 days a week, interacting with an audience of 32 kids and/or tourists each time entertaining and teaching. Great fun! Utterly exhilarating and exhausting. I did little else for 3 years. I consider it as my apprenticeship doing repertory theater.

You had great face time in "The Invention of Lying" trailer, film and production stills. Way to go. Hope you got to see it in the theatre. I played one of the 3 nurses (The other 2 were principals) in the hospital scene and the big apt crowd scene... Great time on set!
