A lifelong member of SAG-AFTRA and AEA (ACTORS' EQUITY), James has worked in film,
television, webcasts and on the stage. He has also been featured in several national commercials.
IMPROVISATION and COMEDY have played an intrinsic part in Jim's development, as well. He trained directly with Viola Spolin, who created the improvisation techniques used by THE SECOND CITY. After training with Viola Spolin, Jim was asked to co-create and perform in an original touring show with the Spolin Players.
After touring with the Spolin Players, Jim co-founded The Exotic Women, an innovative
underground improv/music troupe. Starting with sketch comedy and then full-length scripted productions, the Exotic Women added live music and ultimately won a Rockefeller Grant.
