Raised
in Flint, Michigan, Chris was a troubled
high school dropout by the age of 14. After having
his world turned upside-down by run-ins with the law,
he found solace and purpose in the form of theatre.
With a razor sharp focus and fierce tenacity he left his former
life behind and obtained a degree in Theatre and Interpretation
from Central Michigan University.
Theatrically he has played various roles from Stanley Kowalski
in Tennesse Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire to
Lnc. Cpl.
Dawson in Aaron Sorkin’s A Few Good Men to
the Dauphin
Charles VII in George Benard Shaw’s Saint Joan.
Most recently in film he has been seen as the vampire Udo in The
Last Goodbye, an inept burglar Pete in the short Parked
and Empty,
as megalomaniac film director Jimmie Ray Johnson in Return of
the Jackalope, and a sleazy bar manager named Isaac in The
Other Side.
A chameleon, he has worked on well over thirty films portraying convicts,
clerks, clowns, villains and many things in between.
