About Me

I'm an aspiring actor who got through college with a communication degree and now I plan on hitting up Hollywood. My main passion is behind the camera with directing and cinematography(photography is my hobby and artistic passion) but I dont mind starting with acting and moving to directing later. I have been in three movies so far. The Hot Chick was my first. The second was Love Dont Cost A Thing. The last and best by far was The Girl Next Door because I filmed on location for over 15 days as a popular guy and received my S.A.G (Screen Actors Guild) card from that movie. Recently I was one of the pizza delivery guys on the T.V. show Everybody Hates Chris. In the past I have worked at The Disneyland Resort as an Outdoor Vendor for over a year and I bussed at the famous and exclusive Club 33 Restaurant in New Orleans Square. I love that park. A year ago I moved with my wife to the hills of Silver Lake/Los Feliz area just outside of Hollywood to be closer to work. Our apartment has a spectacular view of the Hollywood valley and sits just below the Griffith Observatory. I am passionate about cooking as a hobby specializing in Asian Stir-fry, blackened salmon filets, Chicken with mango sauce, and seasonings. I also make a mean creme brule. I met the love of my life over 5 1/2 years ago. She is my foundation, motivation, and inspiration. Heather Wood is the only one who really knows me and really understands me and will be with me always and forever. I am now married to the woman of my dreams who truly makes me happy in life. After our wedding, we went on a 39 day honeymooon adventure covering 15 countries. It was the trip of a lifetime. Heather got a permanent job as a Kindergarten teacher at Annalee Elementry in Carson. I am so pround of her. I am now currently represented by a theatrical agent. He has big plans for me for both t.v. pilot season, soap operas and movies coming up. The ball has started rolling toward my film success and I am slowly carving out my ideal life. I am a member of the Delta Chi Fraternity at CSULB. Check out my personal website at www.evanzalaha.com. One day you will see my star on the Hollywood walk of fame. ..This profile was edited with HTML4U MYSPACE DESIGNER
