About Larry
About Larry
I am a native Washingtonian with several decades of experience. From childhood to adulthood, I have been fortunate to work in every genre of the entertainment industry.
I began as a member of and was hand chosen by The Washington Ballet and The Bolshoi to appear in their United States debut in Washington, D.C. I have performed leading roles throughout the USA and Canada, from National and Regional Live Theater, Off-Broadway, producing and recording CD's, Promotional Modeling work for National Corporations, Commercials, Voice Over and Radio, a successful Rock band, Industrial and Mainstage Film, and as a child, starring in a National Television Show and performing for two Presidents of The United States at The White House.
I have been fortunate to work with celebrities such as Ted Neeley, Carl Anderson, Ben Vereen, Jack Black and others. My career has earned me memberships in all three unions: AEA, AFTRA, and SAG.
When my daughter was born, in order not to miss a moment of her childhood, I chose to shift my focus to Teaching, Casting, Producing and Directing. I wanted to "pay it forward" and give back to students what so many had freely and selflessly given to me as a child performer.
