After a callback today, I’ve been accepted to study with legendary acting coach Wynn Handman. I’m now enrolled in his six-class acting course.
For those of you who don’t know Wynn Handman, he is the founder of The American Place Theatre in NYC and was Sanford Meisner’s apprentice at The Neighborhood Playhouse. His students and protégés include Richard Gere, Michael Douglas, Mira Sorvino, Sam Shepard, Eric Bogosian, Raul Julia, Frank Langella, Allison Janney, James Caan, Kathleen Chalfant, Joel Grey, Burt Reynolds, John Leguizamo, Anna Deavere Smith, Christopher Walken, Joanne Woodward, Alec Baldwin, and Denzel Washington
For more about Wynn, here’s an article from the NYTimes:
