I started doing voice work at local radio stations in the '70's, while I was a Theatre student at SUNY Albany. After graduating, I worked in non-union theatres, and did some local radio spots. In 1976, I entered Albany Law School. I graduated in 1979 and began my life as a trial lawyer. I'm good at telling stories--always have been. I retired from my law practice a couple of years ago, after having my third heart attack. I am financially secure--BUT BORED TO DEATH. I have acted in Shakespeare in Delaware Park in Buffalo, NY, and in some other small professional theatres, but, at 60, don't really relish learning 50 pages of dialogue--so, I've been doing some background acting in feature films shooting here, some local TV spots, and have taken some additional training in voice acting from Toni Sivieri, who Patrick Fraley assures me is a "Pip". I'm SAG-AFTRA eligible as a result of the film work, but haven't had a reason to pay the initiation fee yet.
That's where you come in--give me a reason to pay that union initiation fee!

I'm a pretty damned good lawyer.
