Andrew Herr's life began in London, Ontario, where he resided until the tender age of two, when a significant change took place and his family relocated to the quaint town of St. George, Ontario. This pivotal move had a lasting impact on his formative years, shaping his early experiences and laying the groundwork for the person he would become.
As he entered his grade 12 year, Andrew's family made another notable move, this time to Kingston, Ontario, a decision that would ultimately kindle his passion for the performing arts. It was during this time that he first discovered his affinity for acting, inspired by his participation in a high school theatre production of Daniel MacIvor's thought-provoking play "Never Swim Alone" for the esteemed Sears Drama Festival.
