Greg Beam
Greg is an actor, writer, and director who loves to share his passion for the arts with his students. He has performed on stages from Maine to California (and Eastern Europe) and appeared in numerous films, commercials, radio ads, and video games. His original plays—which have enjoyed productions in London, New York, and Chicago—have been described as "perversely sophisticated... refreshingly transgressive" (Chicago Reader), "smart, stylish, sharply realistic drama" (TimeOut London), and "something important in the modern theatre" (British Theatre Guide). You can find his podcast, Quite Useless—a conversation about art and its role in our lives—on iTunes and Google Play.
Greg has a BA in Philosophy from the University of Chicago and an MFA in Acting from The University of California–Irvine. He is a proud member of SAG-AFTRA and Actors' Equityrs.
