Michael Kishon

Recent credits include a supporting role in NFFTY’s Audience Award and RIIFF’s Filmmaker of the Future Award winning film, Wuhan Driver, produced by Jonathan Sanger. As well as the role of Matt (lead) in the off-broadway production of “Sprawl,” at the SoHo Playhouse. Michael is a proud graduate of NYU Tisch and has trained at the Lee Strasberg Institute, the Yale Summer Acting Conservatory, and Stonestreet Studios. Former teachers include Evan Yionoulis (Dean of Juilliard’s Drama Division,) casting director Ellen Parks (Manny and Lo, Flirting With Disaster,) and renowned actor and teacher Geoffrey Horne (The Bridge On The River Kwai.) Casting director Brette Goldstein describes him as "if Nick Robinson was raised on the Upper West Side." Though younger than he, Michael’s warm, vulnerable, and genuine nature makes him fit for the high school/college age roles from "Justin Foley" in Thirteen Reasons Why to ”Connell Waldron,” in Normal People.
