About Me

I'm batman.Well sort of. That is to say during the daylight and in public I am a mild mannered middle-aged business man caught up in making an original and unique venture get off the ground. Computer presentations, spreadsheets, flow-charts, business meetings, you name it, I'm doing it. I am a devoted Uncle to two great kids and have tried to be a good son to my parents and a good brother to my surviving sibling. I pay my taxes and fight for my political and spiritual beliefs.On my own time I am an actor. 30 years of stage and now a couple years of film. This has kept me young. This has kept me sane. This has kept me from being excited about a new tie assortment at the Big & Tall store. It has allowed me to access the kind of people I might actually grow from knowing, and some that I absolutely fell in love with. Being in the creative community keeps me from becoming comfortable enough for a casket way too early. Lately the exciting folks I have met have inspired me to live harder and smile more. I have spent the last decade or so hovering around 300 lbs., and now for some reason I have been able to drop the extra third of a person I have had hanging on me. I'm right on schedule and should reach my goal by the end of the year. The effort has been highly successful and I love not having that barrier any more. It makes me even more free to enjoy being the content guy in the shadows, observing the brilliance of those around me - taking those moments given me to shine, myself, donning the persona of my characters, letting make-up and costumes be my cowl and cape.I'm batman.I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!

My Interests

In my early years I raised money for myself as a nightclub entertainer. I did everything from Magic to Ventriloquism to comedy to even being an MC for female impersonator shows.

I'd like to meet:

Adam West. Who else? Captain Camp himself. Otherwise, I am looking forward to meeting any person in the film or TV industry who will see in me something that allows them to take a chance. I'm looking to qualify for my holy grail - a SAG card, thus allowing me to realize my dream retirement, as a character actor who did films and TV until his satisfied passing.

Music:

Music is an experience to me. I love music that creates emotion in my mind. I've heard music from just about every genre that does that.

Movies:

Sci-fi, fantasy, comedy. Not much into sad, "real" movies about profound subjects. It was hard enough for me to witness the dramas already played out in my life.

Television:

Lost, Fairly Odd Parents, Danny Phantom, Family Guy, South Park, 6 Feet Under, Firefly. Currently screening the Buffy series.

Books:

Unfortunately, my time reading is on airplanes and in hotels, and usually functional for work. Most interesting lately was the book "The Color Code." A personality management tool which I found quite effective and astoundingly simple.

Heroes:

I could print their names here, but you wouldn't know them. There are a handful of people in my life who showed me that you can make a profit just as easily with integrity than without, and that you can live the life you want to right now. If you live it, it will be.
