All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players.
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
However, in the event that you want just a little more detail, this may help.
A picture being worth a thousand words, I have included one for brevity. The hair is brown with strands of gray (and yes, I will cut it for a role), the beard is curly (when I have one), the eyes are hazel. I'm 5'10" and weigh 200#. Born on May 7, 1961, which puts me at (*coughcough*) at the time of this writing, although many guess about 10 years younger. Of course, using makeup techniques, the grave is the limit on the other end of that scale.
Since we already have a reference to death from which to segue, here's the "obituary."

And now, some miscellaneous information which may be relevant.
* My singing voice ranges from bass to baritone. Tenor with some discomfort (for the listener). Falsetto, no problem.
* I play fife and harmonica passably. You may even recognize the tunes. Learning guitar.
* I do a fair impression of several cartoon characters. Talk like Yoda, I can.
* I speak French like a native....of Texas. Various accents, no problem.
* I can do my own makeup, but won't turn down a personal makeup artist. Hey, I'm not snooty.
* I am able to handle cameras, lights and soundboards. Not to mention various small arms (I hope you don't need that).
* I know how to ride a horse and how to fence (just in case they bring back Xena).
* In case it isn't already apparent, I do know some stage magic.
* I don't argue with directors!
* I can be quiet in the green room.
* I do this for fun. I have not studied for years and don't ever expect to be discovered. Not that I'd turn it down...
