Learning to act from an Emmy Award winning professional actor

David T.

My name is David and I have over 40 years of acting experience in Film, TV and Stage. I'm best known world-wide for my role on Young and the Restless where I received 3 Emmy nominations and won my first Emmy for Outstanding Male Actor in a Drama Series for my role as Billy Abbott.

I've been teaching and coaching actors for over 17 years now and I have the experience and training to coach actors who are either beginning their journey with acting or are well experienced and are looking to bring more color and light to their work. I help students stand out in front of the casting director and make their tapes unique from the rest.

I've worked with and continue to study with the world famous acting instructor Ivanna Chubbick who has coached Oscar Award winning actors such as Hillary Swank and Halle Barry. My method and style of teaching is a hybrid of the technique that Ivanna Chubbick teaches. My students learn how to breakdown scenes and how to emotionally and truthfully become the characters they are playing.

I've helped many students enter the industry the correct way. Unfortunately there are so many scams out there that beginning actors need to be aware of. So it's very helpful to have someone like me guide them in the right direction and help them take those first steps towards entering the industry. Everything from finding the right photographer for headshots to how to look for and apply for representation at certain agencies. Acting is my passion, and I love to share that passion with others so they may reach their dreams of becoming a working actor.
