About Me

For those seeking me out professionally: my name's Richard Chandler and I'm currently living in New England. Please check out RichardChandlerP.com for a headshot/resume and samples of my work. For everyone else...
Hey, I'm Rick. I'm 25, live near Boston, and big into 80s heavy metal (not glam, think Megadeth).
I write/direct/produce and act in indy film, and would like to enter the entertainment industry full- time, but we all know getting a legit break to the big time is tough. Hopefully someday I will be recognized for my work.
-Within the last few years I have completed my first indy films (religious horror), Our Kingdom Come and Sons of Perdition.
You may purchase Our Kingdom Come, distributed by Knight Entertainment, at Amazon.com.
-I am also an author and have published my first novel, Dark Nation through Vantage Press. You can check it out anywhere where books are sold on-line; try Amazon.com. I have interest in writing more novels but it's crazy hard with work, and the publishing industry is brutal as is.
-I currently work as a heavy machine operator in a sheetmetal shop. I took the civil service exam, we'll see if anything comes of it.

-Back in the fall of '82, I was born one month early because I'm impatient. I grew up in Canton, a small town just south of Boston where I was a good kid that took my vitamins and said my prayers.

-After the ever-so-amazing Canton public school system, I attended Stonehill College where I proceeded to kill many brain cells. My most fond memories of college are those that involved Keystone Light.
-I lived in Boston for a while and got my masters in criminal justice at BU. The city was a cool place; still like to visit.
