Chris Michael

Actor  •  Writer  •  Musician  •  Adventurer

Welcome! I'm Chris Michael, an NYC based actor. I was born and raised in New York as well. I was formally trained at a 2 year Meisner program.

Enough about the silly stuff, let's talk seriously. I'm a sensitive person but serious and playful. I'm intense about the things that matter to me. I care deeply about the people in my life. I like to think I have it all together but I'm not perfect. A fun fact about myself is I adore sunsets. It reminds me to see the beauty in everything and keeps me grounded. My favorite color is red :)
Based in New York City Available for theatre, film & voiceover

Here's a presentation of my work. I believe acting is telling the truth and wearing your heart on your sleeve. But as a craft I always wanna keep improving,pushing limits in my own lane. Check out my youtube for a quick and easy access to more of my acting.
