on 6/5 I interviewed Richard Brundage. Richard is a talented film and stage actor. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0116054/. New York-based actor Richard Brundage was born in Seattle and grew up in Woodbridge, Virginia and La Spezia, Italy. Before taking up acting, he pursued several careers, some of them quite brief, including librarian, semi-professional French hornist, high-school math teacher, word processor, and classical music engraver/editor. At the age of 39, pretty much on a whim, he signed up for a couple of acting classes at HB Studio in Manhattan. Soon he was ruined for any kind of useful employment except acting, and that's all he's been doing ever since.
