Biography

Kevin's journey in the entertainment industry began with a stint in a rock and roll band during his college days, specifically with the Dave Starky V. This early foray into the world of music laid the groundwork for his subsequent transition into acting, which started to take shape in the vibrant city of Houston. A major breakthrough came his way with the iconic stage production of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, a show that not only showcased his talents but also afforded him the opportunity to tour and make his Broadway debut. The 1980s saw Kevin residing in New York City, where he continued to hone his craft by taking on the role of M. Butterfly in a national tour of the stage play. This critically acclaimed performance not only solidified his reputation as a talented actor but also prepared him for the next chapter of his career. In 1991, Kevin made the bold decision to relocate to Los Angeles, where he currently resides with his wife, Theresa Nelson, a gifted screenwriter and author.
