Mike was born in Louisville, KY and grew up the 2nd child of loving and encouraging parents who told him always "You can do anything if, you put your mind to it." His father was a hard working man who provided earnestly and his mother a "saint." At age 19 Mike joined the USN and subsequently served for four tours abroad (Viet Nam) upon two Navy ships. He met Terri, his dream California Girl, got married, raised two children April and John and took up residence in the West (California and Arizona). Later Mike moved back to Louisville, KY and completed his BA at the University of Louisville in Communication Mass Media. Now semi-retired from Newspaper Circulation Management, Mike is in "High Pursuit" of Acting in Television and Films. Some of the Films are here on Imdb and more will come as Mike's passion and aspiration and enthusiasm drives toward success in this exciting world of entertainment. Mike will continue to pursue this adventure in Acting because, "I love doing something that makes me happy and is fulfilling. The experience of working with the vast group of gifted and talented people is beyond anything I dreamed in my earlier life. Its not like 'work' at all." Show less «
