The rare native-born San Franciscan, Charles Lewis III spent most of his life dividing his time between "The City by The Bay" and its suburb, Daly City. He began acting in at Westmoor High School, where he quickly became synonymous with the school's Theatre department. He performed everything from Shakespeare to slapstick to social satire. His studies continued at the City College of San Francisco.After an hiatus, Charles returned to acting by landing roles and networking with numerous members of the Bay Area's diverse film-making community. These included small roles in the films The Kite Runner (2007), Four Christmases (2008), Generation Now (2008), and the tv show _Trauma (tv series)(2009)_. He also had memorable roles in independent films such as My Den (2006), The Child (2007), and The Filmmaker (2009).Charles made his professional theatre debut in 2008 as part of a developmental staged reading for San Francisco's renowned A.C.T. (American Conservatory Theatre). He has since built a diverse repertoire of on-stage personae: from the authoritative Sheriff of William Inge's "Bus Stop" to the sadistic-but-vulnerable Soldier in Sarah Kane's controversial "Blasted" to the zany characters that of "Aesop's Fables" (as part of a children's theatre programme) and even Jesus Christ in "The Last Days of Judas Iscariot" by 'Stephen Adly Guirgis'.Charles, as of 2010, resides and works in San Francisco.
