In this first handbook, and those to follow, my aim is to share my personal experiences with you, the actor, in hopes of helping you find your way and sustain yourself in this profession. The question of what we do and why we do it is challenging question, particularly when faced with certain audiences. As an actor, you may exude great confidence on stage, only to reveal yourself as an incredibly shy and private individual offstage. So what drives us to pursue this craft of assuming different personas and performing in front of audiences? This question has plagued me for over four decades, and I still don't have a concrete answer. Perhaps it's a need to explore ourselves or a desire to express ourselves to others from some sort of monophobia. Maybe it's an uncontrollable urge to reveal our innermost feelings from behind a mask. Or maybe it's just an innate passion for performing. Whatever the reason may be, as actors, we often face a host of challenges and complexities that are not immediately apparent to the outside world. Within these pages, I hope to provide some answers and guidance to help you navigate these challenges and find fulfillment in your chosen path.
